The Sun Is Burning

I. Campbell

---

 The sun is burning in the sky
 Strands of clouds go slowly drifting by
 In the park the lazy breeze
 Are joining in the flowers, among the trees
 And the sun burns in the sky

 Now the sun is in the West
 Little kids go home to take their rest
 And the couples in the park
 Are holdin' hands and waitin' for the dark
 And the sun is in the West

 Now the sun is sinking low
 Children playin' know it's time to go
 High above a spot appears
 A little blossom blooms and then draws near
 And the sun is sinking low

 Now the sun has come to Earth
 Shrouded in a mushroom cloud of death
 Death comes in a blinding flash
 Of hellish heat and leaves a smear of ash
 And the sun has come to Earth

 Now the sun has disappeared
 All is darkness, anget, pain and fear
 Twisted, sightles wrecks of men
 Go groping on their knees and cry in pain
 And the sun has disappeared
