Bombs started knocking some heads downtown
Whole population fled underground
Heard the thunder – drove me deep into my bed
Closed my ears to what the people said

Roaring sirens just outside
Give me time – ready by nine
I'll join the people in the caverns deep
Say my prayers and go back to sleep

Flames are getting higher
Bombs still falling
Do I hear you screaming
Cool it down – don't touch the wall
 [bad word] down...

Tokyo Rose, babe, is just a name
Far away – across the sea
Somewhere where there is no planes
Submarines or battleships

Swear I'm gonna see it through
In years [bad word] I'll settle down
But I won't forget...
