Lyrics
Hiroshima
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.
August 6th 1945,
A day many inoccent people died.
President Truman lost his fucking head.
100,000+ people left dead.
B29 cutting through the sky
Disregarding human life.
U.S. pride it had to win.
Can't justify this fucking sin.
Nuclear war, lives lost.
Government kills with no remorse.
Government kills, that's the way it is.
Can't let it happen again like in Hiroshima!
Hiroshima!
