Our nuclear weapons are sealing our fate
There’s no place to hide,
there’s no place that’s safe
And we know that all life on earth is at stake
So we say NO NUKES!
for our grandchildren’s sake

With hazardous radioactive pollution
for nuclear waste, there is no solution
and LANL keeps failing to clean their mess up
So that’s why we say, STOP making this stuff!

As people are suffering in desperate straits,
you’re building more bombs
and inciting more hate
What kind of a world do you want to create?!
So we say NO NUKES!
for our grandchildren’s sake
Oh, for our grandchildren’s sake!
