America dropped the first bomb,
And it seems that ever since,
It's been just an uphill battle,
The rest of the world to convince.

She claims that it was justified,
That so many died in that flash,
There was nothing left to bury,
No, not so much as even ash.

Oh what wicked, vile weapons,
Are born in the hearts of men,
I can only hope and pray,
That they never do it again.

August 6, 1945 -- a day in infamy when the crew of the Enola Gay dropped a 15 kiloton atomic bomb codenamed "Little Boy" on the Japanese city of Hiroshima. Not satisfied with the horrific death and destruction which resulted from that atomic blast, three days later, the U.S. government dropped a second atomic weapon -- the 21-kiloton "Fat Man" -- on the Japanese city of Nagasaki.
