Tom Lehrer! Tom! Lehrer!

Jag har hittat en ny kärlek, den genialiske Tom Lehrer (amerikansk musiker OCH matematiker). Hans storhetstid var väl någongång under 50, 60 - talet, men på något sätt är hans musik fortfarande aktuell. Han var före sin tid helt enkelt.
Nåja, ni kommer att förstå efter att ha tittat på denna video (lyssna på texten, texten är grymmare än grymmast).






First we got the bomb, and that was good
'Cause we love peace and motherhood
Then Russia got the bomb, but that's okay
'Cause the balance of power's maintained that way
Who's next

France got the bomb, but don't you grieve
'Cause they're on our side, I believe
China got the bomb, but have no fears
They can't wipe us out for at least five years
Who's next

Then Indonesia claimed that they
Were gonna get one any day
South Africa wants two, that's right
One for the black and one for the white
Who's next

Egypt's gonna get one too
Just to use on you know who
So Israel's getting tense
Wants one in self defense
"The Lord's our shepherd," says the psalm
But just in case, we better get a bomb

Who's next

Luxembourg is next to go
And, who knows, maybe Monaco
We'll try to stay serene and calm
When Alabama gets the bomb
Who's next, who's next, who's next, who's next
