One of GWAR’s most popular songs, “Bring Back the Bomb” is a fast paced track that advocates for continued and more reckless use of nuclear weapons as a solution to all problems. Within the album’s story, it is the rallying cry for the War Party, a political party that stands for complete destructio...
[Verse 1]
Hiroshima, a shadow burned in time
Nagasaki, naked baby melts alive
Burnt flesh and rubble from sea to dead shore
Such a hideous theater of war
But that was the end, why?
There are so many more that must die
Is that not part of the plan?
I must use the nukes
I can't kill you all with my hands
Hydrogen bomb, new signs of doom
Thermo-nuclear, neutron bomb too
You say these devices must never be used
I say you're mistaken, let's get to the fuse
[Chorus]
Bring!
Bring back the bomb
[Verse 2]
This is state policy, by other means
Your life ends in terror, this is now decreed
This is the blasting of bloody steel beams
The bomb blows air backwards, there's no time to scream
When they tested the A-bomb, they had a real fear
The blast will destroy your sweet atmosphere
But far more important as power increases
Was wasting the planet in well-ordered pieces
[Chorus]
Bring!
Bring back the bomb
Bring! Bring! Bring!
Bring back the bomb
Bring back the bomb, it's been far too long
Summon the brazen war chariot
Bring back the bomb, what makes it so wrong?
Release the beast, you can't bury it
Ha! Ha!
Ha! Ha!
Ha! Ha!
Hrah! Haaa...
[Bridge]
Why should the fire be shared with so few?
Let bombs explode, cause that's what they do
Nuke Mecca, New York, the Vatican too
Give me a bomb, I'll drop it on you
Why stop at only two?
You showed the world just what they can do
What a waste not to destroy
Come play at war, man, and bring your best toy
Who gives a fuck about a nuclear war?
Let bombs explode, because that's what they're for
Last minute warning, the sirens they sing
Chaos, the reason, death, what we bring
Humans now look to the sky
You worship missiles, yet they know no side
I guess it was all a lie
So grab ass with both hands, it's your turn to die
Die! It's your turn to die
Die! It's your turn to die
Lies! They killed you with lies
Die, human, die!
[Break]
And while we're at it, let's go nuke Tibet
Let's vaporize the oceans with glee
Saving the whales, an agenda for some
Nuking them sits well with me
[Chorus]
Bring!
Bring back the bomb
They know not what they do!
Bring!
Bring back the bomb
Bring back the bomb, it's been far too long
Summon the brazen war chariot
Bring back the bomb, what makes it so wrong?
Crucify Judas Iscariot
Bring!
Bring back the bomb
They know not what they do
Bring!
Bring back the bomb
What makes it so wrong?
