Leave the Atom Alone |
Ever since the apple in the garden with Eve |
Man always foolin' with things that cause him to grieve |
He fool with the woman, with the Roman hot blood |
And he almost washed up by the 40 day flood |
But not since the doom day in old Babylon |
Did he fool with anything so diabolical as the cyclotron |
So if you wish to avoid the most uncomfortable trip to paradise |
You will be scientific and take my advice |
Leave de atom alone |
Leave de atom alone |
Don’t get smart alexy with the galaxy |
Leave atom alone |
If you want to keep riding in Cadillac car |
If you don’t want to surely go to heaven prematurely on a shooting star |
If it pleasures your heart to keep smoking that big fat cigar |
Let me drive the point home |
Leave de atom alone |
If you want Mississippi to stay where it is |
If you want to see Wall Street and General Motors continue in biz |
If you want Uncle Sam to keep holding what’s yours and what’s his |
If you’re fond of kith and kin in their skin and bone |
Don’t fool around with hydrogen |
Leave de atom alone |
Bad for the teeth, bad for the bone |
Don’t fool with it, leave it alone |
If you like Paris in the springtime (Paris in the springtime) |
London in the fall (London in the fall) |
Manhattan in the autumn (Manhattan in the autumn) |
With music on the mall (with music on the mall) |
Stop fooling with the fallout |
Or puff the cosmic ball |
Or soon you will be fissionable material |
(Bad for the teeth, bad for the bone |
Don’t fool with it, leave it alone!) |
Don’t mess around you dopes |
Lay off the isotopes |
Don’t you fuss with the nucleus |
Don’t go too far with the nuclear |
Don’t get gay with the cosmic ray |
You’ll burn your fingers, lose your hair |
You’ll leave big smog in the atmosphere |
You’re most exasperated |
When radioactivated |
And cannot be located on telephone |
Go on back! |
(to rock and roll-a) |
(To Rum and Coca Cola) |
Go back to Eve, but leave de atom alone |
(Bad for the teeth) That’s right!, (bad for the bone) Uh Huh! |
(Don't fool with it) |
You’ll spoil your complexion |
Tie up the traffic |
Jam up your plumbing |
Lose your sweet disposition |
(Don't fool with it) |
Leave it alone |
