Like moths to a flame   Is man never gonna change   Time's seen untold aggression   And infliction of pain   If that's the only thing that's stopping war      Then thank God for the bomb   Thank God for the bomb   Thank God for the bomb   Thank God for the bomb      Nuke ya, nuke ya      War is just another game   Tailor made for the insane   But make a threat of their annihilation   And nobody wants to play   If that's the only thing that keeps the peace      Then thank God for the bomb   Thank God for the bomb   Thank God for the bomb   Thank God for the bomb      Nuke ya, nuke ya      Today was tomorrow yesterday   It's funny how the time can slip away   The face of the doomsday clock   Has launched a thousand wars   As we near the final hour   Time is the only foe we have      When war is obsolete   I'll thank God for the war's defeat   But any talk about hell freezing over   Is all said with tongue in cheek   Until the day the war drums beat no more      I thank God for the bomb   Thank God for the bomb   Thank God for the bomb   Thank God for the bomb      Nuke ya, nuke ya
