Lyr Req: parody of Little Town of Bethlehem

Dear folks,

I have googled and yahoo-ed all over the internet, looking for a song that I vaguely remember. I think it was from back in the 1960s, at least that was the first time I heard it. It was an anti-nuke parody of Little Town of Bethlehem, and all I can remember was a line that went (I think) "... the strontium clouds roll by". Of course, I'm often wrong. Does this ring a bell with anybody? I'd be very grateful for the words. Thanks,

Maryanne

PS: I've searched the DT, without success. The last time I tried to search the forum, I got an error message.

No luck. The Forum doesn't show anything either. I searched using "strontium clouds roll by". Do you remember any other words? Who might have sung the song?

It was mentioned in a thread here this year - I read it! - so it's in here somewhere....
