Bombers

All clear wail the sirensSunshine on the waste-landOld man sitting in the white sandThink we're in for a big surprise,right between the ey..esSeemed a good ideato drop a bomb on the waste-land, yeahOnly one man could be seen,and he was old and so sereneCaptain sat in his deck chair,and the red light flashed "beware"Pilot felt quite big-timeas the bomb sailed through the airWell, they danced and sangwhen the bang went bangWhen the lights popped outand the smoke began to clear,it was positively queer!"Die" said the General,"cobblers" said the manSo the Pentagon sent a cable,and the Queen a telegramA-bombs, H-bombs, even very small onesripped apart that sand'Til the stench was just revolting!,and the sky a green-ish tanBut the soldier said "Sir,there's a crack in the world"And the figures went "squash",and the bits flew far and wideHow the universe sighed!When the smoke had blown away,there was nothing left to viewExcept a man, dear Lord!, he look like youFloating high,up in the sky...
