Remember back to long ago When they taught us all in school That when we heard the air raid siren Duck and Cover was the rule The times they are a'changing And the rules are still the same When you hear that air raid siren Duck and Cover's not a game Duck and Cover Buddy See the flash and go to ground Don't speak, just Duck and Cover Duck and Cover, at the sound It may not be a siren It may be in your head So, Duck and Cover buddy Duck and Cover or you're dead There's times in every marriage When it's best to turn away When silence is a virtue It's best just not to say Keep Quiet if it's possible Say very little if you must You know deep down what you have to do Remember back and just... Duck and Cover Buddy See the flash and go to ground Don't speak, just Duck and Cover Duck and Cover, at the sound It may not be a siren It may be in your head So, Duck and Cover buddy Duck and Cover or you're dead Questions left unanswered Leave you open to a fight Choose your battles wisely No response is right There's the ever dreaded question Do I look fat in this? Compared to what's no answer The thing to do is this... Duck and Cover Buddy See the flash and go to ground Don't speak, just Duck and Cover Duck and Cover, at the sound It may not be a siren It may be in your head So, Duck and Cover buddy Duck and Cover or you're dead Duck and Cover Buddy See the flash and go to ground Don't speak, just Duck and Cover Duck and Cover, at the sound It may not be a siren It may be in your head So, Duck and Cover buddy Duck and Cover or you're dead

Duck and Cover

Duck and Cover Buddy See the flash and go to ground Don't speak, just Duck and Cover Duck and Cover, at the sound It may not be a siren It may be in your head So, Duck and Cover buddy Duck and Cover or you're dead Questions left unanswered Leave you open to a fight Choose your battles wisely No response is right There's the ever dreaded question Do I look fat in this?

Duck and Cover Buddy See the flash and go to ground Don't speak, just Duck and Cover Duck and Cover, at the sound It may not be a siren It may be in your head So, Duck and Cover buddy Duck and Cover or you're dead Duck and Cover Buddy See the flash and go to ground Don't speak, just Duck and Cover Duck and Cover, at the sound It may not be a siren It may be in your head So, Duck and Cover buddy Duck and Cover or you're dead
