Be Bop A Lula

When we were young
the world was a be bop place
full of playgrounds and bomb shelters
and teenybop music.
I couldn't hear the serious music
even though the USSR threatened
(Khrushchev brandishing his shoe,
promising to bury the West)
and thank god.

The world is still a dangerous place, my love,
but we survive.
