Suno - We Want Nukes PSA

Back in the 1950s and 1960s especially, a common popular myth (especially in superhero comic books) was that radiation from the awesome new technology that had just recently won World War II for us could do all kinds of quasi-magical things, such as giving people superpowers. Of course, many critics in the more cynical decades that were to follow pointed out that were this true in reality, people *everywhere* would want to have a nuclear power plant/waste disposal facility in their home towns so they could go hang out by the radioactive waste dumps to acquire superpowers for themselves. This song is about a kind of public service announcement that would also exist in a world where that myth was a reality advising citizens everywhere to tell their local officials they wanted a nuclear waste dump in their towns.

Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
Nowadays, nukes all the rage;
Civilization's next stage.
Radiation in the air;
Superpowers everywhere!

[Chorus]
Be a mutant; join the fun.
Ask your officials, every one:
Power up for every town.
We want nukes; we won't back down!

[Verse 2]
Superheroes all can be,
If you build that plant, you see:
Leaky nukes and glowing light
Gonna make us all take flight!

[Chorus]
Be a mutant; join the fun.
Ask your officials, every one:
Power up for every town.
We want nukes; we won't back down!

[Verse 3]
Feel the surge and spread your wings;
Nuclear does all these things:
Super speed, and super strength;
Powers on any wavelength!

[Chorus]
Be a mutant; join the fun.
Ask your officials, every one:
Power up for every town.
We want nukes; we won't back down!

[Verse 4]
Tell your friends and spread the word;
In each city, let it be heard:
Let Cherenkov light our skies
To more mutants, let's give rise.

[Chorus]
Be a mutant; join the fun.
Ask your officials, every one:
Power up for every town.
We want nukes; we won't back down!

[Bridge]
Call them up and don't delay:
Get one for your town today:
Power plant with pipes that leak,
Dumping waste into the creek.

[Chorus]
Be a mutant; join the fun.
Ask your officials, every one:
Power up for every town.
We want nukes; we won't back down!
