Christmas at Ground Zero

By: Weird Al Yankovic

 

It's Christmas at Ground Zero

There's music in the air

The sleigh bells are ringin' and the carolers are singin'

While the air raid sirens blare

 

It's Christmas at Ground Zero

The button has been pressed

The radio just let us know

That this is not a test

 

Everywhere the atom bombs are droppin'

It's the end of all humanity

No more time for last minute shoppin'

It's time to face your final destiny

 

Well, it's Christmas at Ground Zero

There's panic in the crowd

We can dodge debris while we trim the tree

Underneath a mushroom cloud

 

You might hear some reindeer on your rooftop

Or Jack Frost on your windowsill

But if someone's climbin' down your chimney

You better load your gun and shoot to kill

 

Oh, it's Christmas at Ground Zero

And if the radiation level's okay

I'll go out with you and see the all new

Mutations on New Year's Day

 

It's Christmas at Ground Zero

Just seconds left to go

I'll duck and cover with my yuletide lover

Underneath the mistletoe

 

It's Christmas at Ground Zero

Now the missles are on their way

What a crazy fluke we're gonna get nuked

On this jolly holiday

What a crazy fluke we're gonna get nuked

On this jolly holiday
