Better Things

I was walking in the park one day
Wondering about this nuclear age
I look around and what I see 
are people smiling at me
Am I a fool please tell me so
to believe that bombs are no good

I got better things to do than die
for the sake of some fool's pride
some fool's pride

I was walking in the street one day
underneath this nuclear haze
I look around and what I see 
are people everywhere like you and me
It's time we stopped this foolish race
and get on with life like we should

I got better things to do than die
for mistakes of selfish pride
selfish pride

Repeat ad nausem...
