Admiral, Jack! I mean admirable.

Fire a Couple More Missles
tune: Come a Little Bit Closer (Jay and the Americans)

In a little café on the other side of the Neva
We were a-sippin' our drinks, and not thinking of coldwar endeavahs
When a rocket flew overhead
It was red white and blue, and I said,
"This must be World War Three,"
Then I heard the bartender say-yay-yay:

Fire a couple more missles, that's my kinda plan
So tough and so strong
Fire a couple more missles, The end is in sight
And nuclear winter's so long!

Well we started to head for the shelter down in the basement
Then we realized what Bush's tests up in outer space meant
But what we had no way to know
Was that the missile that started the show
Was a fool in a home-made rocket, who would never say-yay-yay:

Fire a couple more missles, that's my kinda plan
So tough and so strong
Fire a couple more missles, The end is in sight
And nuclear winter's so long!

Now they say the man that started World War 3 was a tinker
Made a rocket from a cement mixer, yeah, quite a thinker
His rocket lifted with grace
Right up into Russian airspace
And when they shot him down it was the just the start of doomsday-yay-yay

Fire a couple more missles, that's my kinda plan
So tough and so strong
Fire a couple more missles, The end is in sight
And nuclear winter's so long!
