Old Man Atom - Sons of The Pioneers/Tom Glazer[00:00:00]

Written by：Martin.C[00:00:02]

Hiroshima nagasaki[00:00:08]

Alamogordo bikini[00:00:13]

I'm gonna preach you all a sermon[00:00:17]

About old man atom that's me[00:00:19]

I don't mean the adam in the bible datum[00:00:22]

I don't mean the adam that mother eve elated[00:00:24]

I mean that thing that science liberated[00:00:26]

The thing that einstein says he's scared of[00:00:30]

And when einstein's scared[00:00:33]

Brother you'd better be scared[00:00:35]

If you're scared of the atom[00:00:38]

Here's what's you gotta do[00:00:39]

You gotta gather all the people[00:00:40]

In the world with you[00:00:42]

'Cause if you don't get together and do it[00:00:43]

Well first thing you know[00:00:45]

I'm gonna blow this world plum too[00:00:47]

Hiroshima nagasaki[00:00:49]

Alamogordo bikini[00:00:54]

Now life used to be such a simple joy[00:00:58]

My cyclotron was just a super toy[00:01:01]

And folks got born they'd work and marry[00:01:03]

And atom was a word in the dictionary[00:01:05]

And then it happened[00:01:08]

The science boys from every clime[00:01:11]

They all pitched in with overtime[00:01:13]

And before they knew it[00:01:15]

The thing was done[00:01:16]

And they'd hitched up the power of the golden sun[00:01:17]

And put a harness on old sol[00:01:20]

Splittin' atoms[00:01:23]

While the diplomats was splittin' hairs[00:01:24]

Hiroshima nagasaki[00:01:28]

Alamogordo bikini[00:01:32]

But the atom's here in spite of hysteria[00:01:37]

Flourishes in utah as well as Siberia[00:01:39]

And whether you're a black white red or brown[00:01:42]

The question is this when you boil it down[00:01:44]

To be or not to be that's the question[00:01:47]

The answer to it all ain't military datum[00:01:52]

Like who gets there firstest with the mostest atoms[00:01:55]

No the people of the world must decide their fate[00:01:58]

They gotta get together or disintegrate[00:02:00]

I hold this truth to be self evident[00:02:04]

That all men may be cremated equal[00:02:07]

Hiroshima nagasaki[00:02:10]

Alamogordo bikini[00:02:14]

Yes it's up to the people[00:02:19]

'Cause the atoms don't care[00:02:21]

You can't fence me in I'm just like air[00:02:22]

I don't give a hoot about any politics[00:02:25]

Or who got what into whichever fix[00:02:27]

All I want to do is sit around[00:02:30]

And have my nucleus bombarded by neutrons[00:02:32]

Now the moral is this just as plain as day[00:02:36]

That old man atom is here to stay[00:02:39]

I'm gonna stick around and that's for true[00:02:41]

But ah my dearly beloved are you[00:02:44]

So listen folks here is my thesis[00:02:48]

Peace in the world or the world in pieces[00:02:51]

Hiroshima nagasaki[00:02:56]

Alamogordo bikini[00:03:00]
