In Europe and America there's a growing feeling of hysteria 

Conditioned to respond to all the threats 

In the rhetorical speeches of the Soviets

Mister Khrushchev said, 'We will bury you' 

I don't subscribe to this point of view

It'd be such an ignorant thing to do 

If the Russians love their children too 

How can I save my little boy 

From Oppenheimer's deadly toy? 

There is no monopoly of common sense 

On either side of the political fence 

We share the same biology 

Regardless of ideology 

Believe me when I say to you 

I hope the Russians love their children too 

There is no historical precedent to put

The words in the mouth of the president 

There's no such thing as a winnable war 

It's a lie we don't believe anymore 

Mister Reagan says 'We will protect you'

I don't subscribe to this point of view

Believe me when I say to you

I hope the Russians love their children too 

We share the same biology 

Regardless of ideology 

What might save us, me and you 

Is if the Russians love their children too
