Cold November dawn
In the mountain Cheyenne,
In fort Ritchie Centre
And Pentagon.
NORAD system track
Showed the attack.
ICBM force
Await firestorm.

Nuclear alarm!
Condition number one!

Doomsday plane took off.
Minuteman are on.
Tension grows fast.
World on the edge.
Space systems didn't prove.
It was the false alarm.
Training tape to blame
Wrongly arranged.
