Lyrics
[Verse 1]
In Europe and America
There's a growin' feeling of hysteria
Conditioned to respond to all the threats
In the rhetorical speeches of the Soviets
[Verse 2]
Mr. Khrushchev said, "We will bury you"
I don't subscribe to this point of view
It's such an ignorant thing to do
If the Russians love their children too
[Verse 3]
How can I save my little boy
From Oppenheimer's deadly toy?
There is no monopoly of common sense
On either side of the political fence
[Verse 4]
We share the same biology
Regardless of ideology
Believe me when I say to you
I hope the Russians love their children too
[Verse 5]
We share the same biology
Regardless of ideology
What might save us, me and you
Is that the Russians love their children too
[Verse 6]
We share the same biology
Regardless of ideology
And what might save us, me and you
Is that the Russians love their children too
