I tried to fight that battle
I tried, oh Lord, I tried
I tried to fight that battle
I tried to lose my way home
I tried to burn my soul, and
I tried, oh Lord, I tried
I tried to burn my soul
(Burn my soul)
It died the day I burned it
It died, oh Lord, it died
It died the day I burned it
I cried the day I burned it
I cried, oh Lord, I cried
I cried the day I burned it
(Day I burned it)
And the Devil came calling, calling, calling
Devil came calling at my window
Made a cry, tried to fly through that window
Made of gla**, had a crash - don't know why
I dive into the Milky Way
Light up with my gamma ray
Floating over Santa Fe
My atomic Holiday
(My atomic holiday)
I hide behind the ashes
I hide, oh Lord, I hide
I hide behind the ashes
Beside the broken window
Beside, oh Lord, beside
Beside the broken window
And the Angel came calling, calling, calling
Angel came calling at my window
Made a cry, tried to fly through that window
Broken gla** in a flash - don't know why
I dive into the Milky Way
Light up with my gamma ray
Floating over Santa Fe
My atomic holiday
(My atomic holiday)
