the clouds are gathering overhead and i'm afraid
throwing the latch on the bunker in the yard
we got enough food to last us one thousand days
and enough bullets to not try too hard
i heard the plans creeping quiet through the ether
picked them up on my radio in the dark of night
it may have been a series of clicks and pops
cracking that code brought me such delight

no one believes me
no one but you
i'm glad it's just us
because these neighbors are fools

heard something outside at some point late last night
i'm confident that it came from up above
i didn't wake you for fear of causing alarm
but i would have pushed if it came to shove
it seems i waited in the dark for hours on end
played through scenarios of rapid response
but the dawn came and so went the sound
and then i woke you up with complete nonchalance

no one believes me
no one but you
i'm glad it's just us
because these neighbors are fools

no one believes me
no one but you
i'm glad it's just us
because these neighbors are fools

i think it’s been a long time since we came down here
it might be safe outside but who can say
perhaps we should stay put for just a while longer
we gave plenty of freeze-dried turkey
lets strike a compromise right here and right now
come tomorrow we'll open up the gate
but only if we manage to sleep through the night
there's no rush to see what awaits

no one believes me
no one but you
i'm glad it's just us
because these neighbors are fools
