1st.
But after the H bomb exploded
then nothing was pretty or green;
society swiftly eroded
and people melded with machines.

2nd.
I married a modern mutation;
by marriage machine we were wed
she was half woman, half crustacean
and had six sparkling eyes of red.

Chorus:
Remember kids, 'cause its a fact
the sky looks better now its black;
be thankful that we set you free
from plants and flowers, birds and bees.
Remember kids, 'cause its a fact
the sky looks better now its black;
be thankful that we set you free
from plants and flowers, birds and bees.
Its better than the bad old days
before radioactive rays;
when children could just play and run
in fields and forests having fun.

3rd.
We moved into a fall out shelter;
had three little mutated kids.
I knitted them all eight armed sweaters
cause they had tentacles like squids.

4th.
And taught by a robotic teacher
they all learned, the H- bomb, to love.
She said, "You're cute mutated creatures
because the bomb fell from above".

Great and rhyme and rhythm, coupled with an inate truth. The first two lines of the chorus are great. Combines a lightness of delivery with a darkness in content.
