- Grandmaster Melle Mel: [rappin'] The cheats, the lies, the alibies, And the foolish attempts to conquer the sky, Lost in space, and what is it worth? Huh, the President just forgot about Earth, Spendin' multi-billions and maybe even trillions, The cost of weapons ran in the zillions...
- Grandmaster Melle Mel: [rappin'] A fight for power, a nuclear shower, A people shout out in the darkest hour, Sights unseen and voices unheard, And finally the bomb gets the last word...
