First Strike
First Strike
First Strike
First Strike
Flying through the sky in air force one
Making calls to see if Johnny's got his guns
Sargeant Bilko says his men are on the run
Make this short sir got no time for fun
No time for talking - We're on the run ---- yeah
Time is short - We're on the run ---- yeah
First Strike - it was the first mistake
First Strike - a choice we should not make
First Strike - it was the first mistake
First Strike - a choice we should not make
Flying through the sky in air force one
Decide to push the button... Now no more guns
No response from Bilko his men are gone
Forty minutes later it's all said and done
No time for talking - No one left to run ---- yeah
Mushroom clouds abound - No more sun ---- yeah
First Strike - it was the first mistake
First Strike - a choice we should not make
First Strike - it was the first mistake
First Strike - a choice we should not make
[interlude solo section]
Now that we have the bomb
Nothing should go wrong
Who will make the first mistake?
Who will remember?
First Strike - It was the first mistake
First Strike - It was the last mistake
First Strike - It was a huge mistake
First Strike - It was the last mistake
First Strike - everybody's gone
First Strike - nobody has won
First Strike!
