In [Am]Europe [G]and A[F]meri[E7]ca
There's a [Am]growing [G]feeling of hys[F]teri[E7]a
Con[Am]ditioned to res[G]pond to [F]all the [E7]threats
In the [Am]rhetorical [G]speeches of [F]the So[E7]viets
{start_of_chorus}
Mr. [C]Khrushchev said, ``We will [E7]bury you''
I [Am]don't subscribe to this [E7]point of view
It would be [Am]such an [G]ignorant [F]thing to [E7]do
If the [Am]Russians love [E7]their children [Am]too
{end_of_chorus}
How can I save my little boy
From Oppenheimer's deadly toy
There is no monopoly of common sense
On either side of the political fence
{start_of_chorus}
We share the same biology
Regardless of ideology
Believe me when I say to you:
``I hope the Russians love their children too''
{end_of_chorus}
There is no historical precedent
To put the words in the mouth of the president
There's no such thing as a winnable war
It's a lie we don't believe anymore
{start_of_chorus}
Mr. Reagan says, ``We will protect you''
I don't subscribe to this point of view
Believe me when I say to you:
``I hope the Russian love their children too''
{end_of_chorus}
{start_of_chorus}
We share the same biology
Regardless of ideology
What might save us me and you
Is that the Russians love their children too
{end_of_chorus}
