20 MINUTES TO GO

My fellow countrymen. This is the Presi-dent.
The current International crisis has now escalated
to a state of nuclear war. Our Early Warning Systems
indicate that our enemy has launched large numbers
of Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles on all major industrial
and military targets in this country.
The first incoming missiles should reach their target areas
within 20 minutes. I urge all our citizens to seek out the
best available shelter and...

20 minutes to go...

[Daughter:]
Never saw you look this way before,
What was that he said about the war?
Mommy's crying, tears run down her cheeks,
She can hardly speak.

[Father:]
Sit down here and take your Papa's hand,
How I'd like to help you understand,
But there's barely time to let you know
How much I love you so.

Chorus:
With only 20 minutes to go,
How much love can you show?
Where on earth can you go,
With only 20 minutes to go?

[Daughter:]
Isn't there still time to run away
To a place where we'll all be safe?
Some-place, Mommy, where the bombs can't go,
Tell me if you know.

[Mother:]
There's no place down here where we can run,
It's too late, the damage has been done.
But beyond this World's a better Land,
As we go, I'll hold your hand.

[Repeat chorus]

[Father:]
Little one, our time has almost come
To leave this World for a better Home.
Let's hold on tight, to Jesus we will pray,
We'll be There right away.

Last chorus:
20 minutes to go, so much Love we will know.
Oh, the time is so close, only 20 minutes to go!
[Repeat]
