President Reagan ain't faking when he says
He's gonna teach the Russians good
You've seen what he done with his six shooting gun
When he cleaned up in Hollywood
And the White House, standing up on Capitol Hill
It's a fortress to freedom with a license to kill
Only the finger on the trigger with a gunslinger's skill
Wants to prove to the world he's not over the hill

And the men in the Kremlin, all senile and twitchy
Would love to come in to your life
To reach out and touch you and teach you
The history of revolution and strife
And the red army's there to help you make up your mind
If you think you've got something to do with your time
They've got rockets and missiles that'll blow your mind
Something to do if you've time
And blow your future right out of time

We're cruising to disaster, getting faster and faster
Watch the wheels catch on fire
Watch the flames burning higher
Cruising to disaster, getting faster and faster
Stand in line, take your place
Say goodbye to the human race
We've had a good run now, the fun is all gone
And the bomb is about to take over
If you want a last look at what it says in the book
It says you'd better look over your shoulder
Cos the military man has made his plans
And ordinary people don't understand
It's a long hard haul to the promised land
If you want to survive, you've got to make a stand
