A joyous song set in a post-apocalyptic hell-hole with harmonized lead guitar, female backup singers, rocking rhythm guitar, rappy vocals, a brass band, tambourine, glockenspiel and a trumpet fanfare in less than 3 minutes.

lyrics

it wasn't long after the last atomic bomb had dropped and the last
plane had fallen from the sky
we were trapped in a bunker, exit had collapsed, and we were suffocating inside.
i held my fading father and swore this is the last time i'll ever say goodbye
to another human that is of course presuming that i'll even make it
out of here alive

through the burning city we processed never heeding the hailings of passersby
it was the food we carried that they so desperately needed but we were
prepared to fight
their blood spilled into the pavement cracked beneath our feet,
pooling stately beneath the streetlights
you see, the killing was easy, but what we feared was sleep and
dreaming of the screaming at night
