[Intro]
            

[Verse 1]
             
The sun is bur

            
ning in the sk

y
              
Strands of clo

             
uds go slowly 

         
drifting by
             
In the park, t

     
he lazy bees
            
Are droning in

 the flowers a

mong the trees
             
And the sun bu

           
rns in the sky

[Verse 2]
             
Now the sun is

        
 in the west
              
Little kids go

             
 home to take 

       
their rest
             
And the couple

      
s in the park
             
Are holding ha

nds and waitin

g for the dark
             
And the sun is

        
 in the west

[Verse 3]
             
Now the sun is

         
 sinking low
              
Children play 

             
and know it's 

        
time to go
             
High above, a 

    
spot appears
           
A little bloss

om blooms and 

then draws nea

r
             
And the sun is

         
 sinking low

[Verse 4]
             
Now the sun ha

           
s come to eart

h
              
Shrouded in a 

             
mushroom cloud

      
 of death
             
Death comes in

         
 a blinding fl


ash
            
Of hellish hea

t and leaves a

 smear of ash
             
And the sun ha

          
s come to eart

[Verse 5]
             
Now the sun ha

        
s disappeared
              
All is darknes

             
s anger pain a

    
nd fear
             
Twisted, sight

           
less wrecks of

# 
 men
           
Go groping on 

their knees an

d cry in pain
             
And the sun ha

        
s disappeared
