Lyrics:

This is where the summer ends
In a flash of pure destruction, no one wins
Goin' nuclear.  Nuclear.
The violets in my eyelids goin' red
Sentimental geek
Shut up and go to sleep
They combed the beach and the remains
Of the bathing suits and Porsches all in flames
Goin' nuclear.  Nuclear.
When I saw her, the Yankees lost to the Braves
Sentimental geek
Sentimental geek
Sentimental geek
Shut up and go to sleep
Give me an answer
Give me an answer
Give me an answer
Give me an answer
Give me an . . .
Give me an . . .
