Can you see the black cloud above his head? Well, it was put there by the nuclear threat He can't seem to have fun anymore frightened by the impending war So he drinks and it all goes away And he smiles because he's still here today And he laughs in the fakest of ways Cuz he knows one day there'll be no tomorrow So he went and found himself a wife Decided to get on with life they sit and play the waiting game For when the bombs will come and take all this away
