Verse 1 Tuesday morning, cup of coffee Radio playing low Weather man said “sunny skies” But he didn’t really know Sirens started screaming Like a choir from hell Somebody yelled “thunder!” Then the bombs fell. Chorus That’s when the bombs fell Heaven rang the bell Everybody running I just wished them well Raised my glass to the sky Said “ain’t this swell?” Funny way the world ends When the bombs fell Verse 2 Mayor lost his briefcase Preacher lost his nerve Banker lost his Cadillac Doctor lost his words I lost my good intentions But I kept my rebel yell Some folks lost tomorrow When the bombs fell Chorus That’s when the bombs fell Heaven rang the bell Everybody screaming I was feeling swell If the end is coming You might as well tell One hell of a story When the bombs fell Bridge (Crowd Moment) Hey bartender pour another round If tomorrow’s gone we’re living now Raise ’em up and laugh out loud Ain’t no kings in a mushroom cloud Final Chorus (Big Karaoke) That’s when the bombs fell Raise ’em up and yell If the end is coming We can laugh as well Here’s to all the fools That lived to tell Where they were standing When the bombs fell
