In a desert valley
 Near the Rio Grande
 Through the sun baked wasteland
 Cross the burning sand
 On the edge of nowhere
 In a hidden place
 They were looking for the answer
 To the power of the sun 

 From out of the sky came the burning death
 Could anyone foresee
 The raging [bad word] from above
 To erase humanity
 In a blinding flash came the fireball
 Melting skin and bone
 It was a mighty city just blown away
 Like dust before a storm 

 There is no city
 There are no people
 There's only shadows on the wall
 Where is the city
 Where are the people
 There's only shadows on the wall 

 Children were playing in Los Alamos
 Nuclear fusion critical mass
 Start a chain reaction
 Build the doomsday toy
 Split the tiny atom
 Your littly boy 

 There is no city
 There are no people
 There's only shadows on the wall
 Where is the city
 Where are the people
 There's only shadows on the wall 

 It was a clear blue morning
 On the fatefull day
 Silver wings of [bad word]  The enola [bad word]  Unleash the awesome power
 Release it from it's cage
 Opening the doorway
 To the nuclear age 

 There is no city
 There are no people
 There's only shadows on the wall
 Where is the city
 Where are the people
 There's only shadows on the wall
