Atomic city


There’s a party going on in atomic city
Some are dancing but none are sitting pretty
There’s a party going on in atomic city
Some are slaves but none are sitting pretty, no

Come on down, come on down
You’ll never get to Heaven if you wear a frown
There’s more to life than a TV game show
Where money wraps itself around your halo

I’m gonna write your name in the book of angels
Laughing moments curse the rising moon, angel
When the whole world shatters
It’s what you got inside that matters, angel

So spread your wings and fly away
From terror, fear and dismay, angel
It’s much too late to sit and cry
Forget the past just walk on by, angel

There’s a party going on in atomic city
Some are dancing but none are sitting pretty
There’s a party going on in atomic city
Some are slaves but none are sitting pretty

We’ve got no ozone, we’ve got radiation
See the air pollution from the power station
There’s a party going on in atomic city
Some are dancing but none are sitting pretty

La luna es muy hermosa
La luna es muy hermosa

Thank your lucky stars we’re not on Jupiter or Mars
Thank your lucky stars we’re not on Jupiter or Mars
(Jupiter or Mars)

Come on down, come on down
You’ll never get to Heaven if you wear a frown
Win a holiday on a game show
Wrap tinsel ‘round your halo

Beat the system before it beats you
Beat the system with your point of view
Beat the system it’s the only way
Beat the system or there’ll be hell to pay

(Thank your lucky stars)
(We’re not on Jupiter or Mars)
Thank your lucky stars
We’re not on Jupiter or Mars

Your father’s castrated
Your mother’s sedated
Your brother’s on the run
Sister’s running ‘round with everyone

I’m gonna write your name in the book of angels
Laughing moments curse the rising moon, angel
Someday life’s a mean machine
You step right through the T.V. screen, angel

Let’s put the world to right
Don’t give up the fight
If time stood still on my windowsill
I’d squash it like a fly, angel

We’ve got no ozone (yeah) we’ve got radiation (radiation)
See the air pollution (yeah) from the power station

There’s a party going on in atomic city (party going on)
Some are dancing but none are sitting pretty (yeah)
There’s a party going on in atomic city (party going on)
Some are slaves but none are sitting pretty (no)

We’ve got no ozone, we’ve got radiation
See the air pollution from the power station

There’s a party going on in atomic city
Some are dancing but none are sitting pretty
