(Chorus) Chorus: Rub on number fifteen sunscreen Call your mother Cover up the pool Pick the kids up at school Wear your sunglasses Put on clean underwear Return all library books And water the plants 2.

Cancel your American Express At the hint of nuclear mania For you may be vaporized on Chicago's South Side But your card could still turn up in Lithuania And .. (Chorus) 4.

Medicare will cover all the bills If you happen to be over sixty-five And if you're on vacation when you die of radiation You'd get promptly paid, if you were still alive Oh .. (Chorus)
