Beautiful Bombers

Listen To: Beautiful Bombers





Traveling West
Day after war declarations
I am astonished
By the sun brightly resting
Atop pointed peaks
Blinding, defined
Guarding the angels in Vegas

Beautiful Bombers
Enormous and graceful
Ferocious and shining, Beautiful
Beautiful Bombers
Take off out of Vegas
Bank for the east, Beautiful
Beautiful Bombers
Wonder of science
Beautiful Bombers

One silver star
Winking at me
Just underneath
A wry grin of a moon
A layer of orange
A layer of blue
Folds into indigo
in the rear view
That’s gotta be at least 17 B-52’s

Beautiful Bombers
Enormous and graceful
Ferocious and shining, Beautiful
Beautiful Bombers
Take off out of Vegas
Bank for the east, Beautiful
Beautiful Bombers
Wonder of science
Beautiful Bombers

One after one
Thundering wonders
Envoys of sorrow
Indifferent destroyers
Distant and fatal
Floating and graceful
Roaring and beastly
Disturbing the peace
