lyrics

My heart's as heavy as U-238
The fallout rays keep on streaming down
There's no lead parasol for this lonesome doll
Only nuclear nightmares on the edge of town

My heart's as heavy as U-238
My cobalt blues are radon red from crying
It's like World War III, now that you've cut me free
My lungs ache with all these sighs I'm sighing

But this uranium heart
Will rise above and glow again
Yes this uranium heart
Will someday be on the mend

My heart's as heavy as U-238
Nuclear winter's done set in
In this aftermath I'll write an epitaph
And I'm all alone without a friend
