Lyrics
He Looks Like Spencer Tracy Now
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
there's a shadow on his photograph
on tinian'45
smiling like a college boy
who's glad to be alive
but now he owns a factory
and a store in los alamos
a wife called beverly
sells second hand ford motors
he may have taken pictures
been caught in albuquerque
flown in "great artiste"
on a mushroom cloud
now he may be a senator
or a general or a turn key
but i know he looks like spencer tracy now
and he cries all night
and he cries all night
and he cries all night
and he cries all night
and he may have been with oppenheimer
shaken einsteins hand
said "did we have to drop the bomb"
