Lemon Knife - "Two Atomic Heroes" Official Music Video

Artist City, State, Country: Chicago, Illinois, U.S.A.

Artist Bio: Lemon Knife is a Chicago-based hard rock duo pulling from classic rock, punk, garage rock, and anything built on riffs to create a melodic and eclectic sound that is remarkably big for being put out by two people.
Formed by kindred nerds Mia Blixt-Shehan (bass, melodic vocals, occasional guitar, musical composition) and John Retterer-Moore (drums, punk vocals, lyrics) in the spring of 2017, they have since played an especially varied assortment of Chicago venues, including Beat Kitchen, Cole’s Bar, Burlington Bar, Reggie’s, Crown Liquors, Moe’s Tavern, several memorable DIY spots, and a few notable non-traditional gigs at events such as YesFest 2018 in Elmhurst and Chicago’s Global Reddit Meetup Day, also in 2018.
Tracks from their debut album, 'Songs about Water and Death', have also received radio play by stations such as WKQX’s Demo 312, WIIT, and WRSE. They released their second full-length album, 'I Know That This Is Vitriol', in December 2019, and their third, 'Endlessly Expanding', in May 2021. As of May 2022, they are actively working on a fourth to be released late 2022 or 2023!

Song Lyrics: "Two Atomic Heroes"

If you were there in the sub on that fateful day
Would you have what it took to disobey
The crisis hot, captain yelling “Bombs away!”
One sudden choice, disgrace or a world in flames
Your tin can seethes, your breath boils, your sweat pours
Maslennikov says this is it, this is war
Torpedoes burst, no info known this far offshore
You think of Olga, Yelena, all you answer for
(J – will you do it x8 you must do it x7, then M – NO!)
Chorus:
Let’s dance for Arkhipov, let’s pop a cork for old Petrov
If we have to burn it down and start again
At least we'll have the sky and the birds and the wind
If I was there in that bunker in eighty-three
And I got that early warning on my system screen
Would I have known whether to turn the end-times key?
A false alarm? Probably…but no guarantee
I like think I would have stayed focused and calm
But I know, were I there, we would have dropped the bomb
Who trains our hands for peace? A missing psalm
So here’s to two heroes who saved us from the atom
