Vultures prey

Another night for colonel petrov
More concerned with getting through his shift
Than atomic warfare

It was a game of nerves
Who'll bomb first
Leaders sweating bullets as slayer showed no mercy

Then the screen cried launch, launch
He kept his cool
Knowing that
This must be a mistake
As he sat and watched the end of the world

Unaware of earth's downfall
We went along with life
Business as usual
