Cause I don’t remember Christmas And I don’t remember you. Later on to my astonishment I did not feel a tug When I walked into the living room and saw that sheep skin rug. All those pesky little echoes, they’re all gone without a trace. It was good to know I could grow unaccustomed to your face. ---

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 dropping It’s the end of all humanity No more time for last-minute shopping It’s time to face your final destiny It’s Christmas at Ground Zero There’s panic in the crowd We can dodge debris while we trim the tree Underneath the mushroom cloud ---
