| Zeppelin’s fly
|
| Bludgeoning through crimson skies dropping bombs on the land
|
| Traveling far from India to Zanzibar, Holland, Rome and Japan
|
| Awaiting command
|
| Well, I know you’ll enjoy yourself tonight
|
| Gather round
|
| Tune in the sound
|
| Of the gravest show on earth
|
| The plan is this the SS Indianapolis leaves from tropic dismay
|
| Cutting seas like great whites ripping flesh with ease
|
| The moment’s just away from Enola Gay
|
| Now let’s go destroy ourselves tonight
|
| Feel the ground
|
| The atomic sound
|
| Of the gravest show on earth
|
| Have you seen the Hindenburg crash down to flames
|
| Hiroshima mushroom cloud is quite the same
|
| It’s just a game, who’s to blame? |
| What a shame
|
| Everybody is waiting, Satan’s figure skating
|
| So listen closely for the entrance of his violin
|
| Now take your seating for the gallows cheating
|
| Well it’s time for gravest show on earth to begin
|
| Witness for yourself the crime
|
| I’m sure you’ll have a grand ol' time
|
| It’s built to please true music lovers, stays with you a lifetime
|
| All that’s left is for you to discover, the magic of the show |
