If this was the cold war we could keep each other I on the first occasion that I met Marie We were crawling through the hatch that was the missile door And I don't think she really thought that much of me
I never had to learn to love her like I to love the bomb She just came and started to ignore me But as we for the big one and I started singing her my songs And I she started feeling something for me
We passed the time with crosswords that she to bring inside What letters spell apocalypse?, she asked me I won her over WWIII Oh, we smiled and we knew that she misjudged me

Then one you found me in my army issue cot And you told me of your flash of You said, "Fusion was the broken heart that's lonely's thought" And all night long you me wild with your equations
Oh Marie, do you all the time we used to take Making and then ramsack the rations I about you leaving now in the avalanche cascades And my eyes get washed away in reactions
Oh Marie, if you stay and we could stick pins in the map Of all the places where you thought that love be found And I would only need one pin to where my love is at In a top secret location three feet under the ground
Oh, we could each other close, stay up every night Looking up into the like it's the night sky Pretend this giant missile is a old oak instead our name in hearts into the warhead
Oh Marie, there's tells me things just won't work out above That our love would live a life on the surface So at night while you are sleeping, I hold you just because As our grows short I get a little nervous
So I think the big one, WWIII Would we ever care, the world had ended? You could hold me here forever like holding me tonight I think about big red button and I'm tempted
