Hello Margaret,
this is a message for the future.
I bet I look like a real loser,
but this was the past.

My darling,
I'm sorry I can't be with you.
But if I was, you'd be dead too,
I had to stay behind.

Now I know you're probably confused,
but there's so much to explain.
I just want to assure you,
that I loved you.

Hello Margaret,
please listen to your mother.
Don't pick on your brother,
you're a family.

My darling,
always hold your mothers hand.
Don't go out in the wastelands,
the radiation will sting.

Now I know you're probably confused,
but there's so much to explain.
I just want to assure you,
that I loved you.

My darling,
I made this video for you,
in case I didn't make it through,
the nuclear apocalypse.

My dear Margaret,
no matter what you go through,
remember I always loved you,
Sincerely,
your dad.
