"At a time when bikini bathing suits were still seen as too risqué to be mainstream, the song prompted a sudden take off in bikini sales and is credited as being one of the earliest contributors to the acceptance of the bikini in society." (Wikipedia)
Jeg vokste opp med den låta. Jeg har inntrykk av at den var på Ønskekonserten på radio hver mandag i absolutt alle barndommens år. Rart jeg ikke er mer hjernevaska enn jeg sikkert ennå er. På tide med en tekstrevidering! På tide å oppkalle badetøyet her i Vesten etter noe annet enn USAs FORBRYTELSER MOT MENNESKEHETEN.
They were afraid to come out of their houses
They were as nervous as they could be
They were afraid to come out of their houses
They were afraid as we all should be
Two three four
All the people on the shore
It was an Itsy Bitsy Nuclear Potion Yellow Polka Dot Explosion
that they saw for the first time that day
An Itsy Bitsy Nuclear Potion Yellow Polka Dot Explosion
And in their houses they wanted to stay
Yes USA is a planet destroyer
Yes USA is a foe to us all
Yes USA is a planet destroyer
I wish they went away once and for all
Two three four
Soon they'll come and bomb some more
It'll be an Itsy Bitsy Nuclear Potion Yellow Polka Dot Explosion
And we'll see no more that day
An Itsy Bitsy Nuclear Potion Yellow Polka Dot Explosion
And then the water will wash us away
