Posies - Enewetak lyrics

Ah, this could have been Enewetak Stressed, embattled, irradiated, evacuated And something's on in those isles A foreign power said Ah, this could have been Enewetak Now bathed in comet spray So many devils were called out now cast in concrete The land was vapor after Operation Ivy Hydrogen megatons, medical 4.1 Has anyone else read H.G. Wells shapes have come? Try to find Enewetak, they say man will bury you But I hope God takes you back in his arms and says "Earth, air, fire and the sea", physics stole them all from me But I will try to keep Enewetak out the rising waves And all the mothers loved their babies Though they weren't like us no more Lay out a heading for the home world Of a species on parole Dust in the atmosphere, 24,000 years A radioactive trail of tears in the sand
