Well, after reading the "War" topic on the Rewind Folder and the various Christmas threads, it gave me the sick and twisted inspiration to share the lyrics of the following song, by Weird Al Yankovic.
And yes, it is an 80's song. But in this post-9/11 environment, it takes on a whole new meaning. But then, I always had a morbid imagination!
Those who are easily offended, might want to turn away now.
* * * * * * * * "CHRISTMAS AT GROUND ZERO" By Weird Al Yankovic
It's Christmas at ground zero There's music in the air The sleigh bells are ringing And the carolers are singing 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 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
[instrumental break with a siren noise]
You might hear some reindeer on your rooftop Or Jack Frost on your windowsill But if someone's climbing down your chimney You better load your gun and shoot to kill
It's Christmas at ground zero And if the radiation level's okay I'll go out with you and see all the 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 missiles are on their way What a crazy fluke, we're gonna get nuked On this jolly holiday!
