The clock freeze, time deforms
They show 11.58.
"Jupiters" that in Turkey
Aim at Moscow.
The Soviet "SS-4"
Are hiding in San Kristobal.
Panic among the leaders.
The world is on the edge,
Cuban blockade…

Ten minutes
For crying,
While flying
Hell missiles.
Armed forces,
High alert,
US
And Warsaw Pact.

Politicians
Are lying.
Their hope is
Sweet missiles.
Mankind is
Awaiting
Last moments
of its life.

This is total madness.
This is day of sadness.
It's the time of crisis,
Fear rising, compromising.

These are days of liars,
Nuclear desire,
Games with the missiles.
Anger rising, terrorizing

Khrushev and Kennedy
And finally they get in touch.
"We should not pull both sides
The rope with the knot of war".
The military men
Can not stop provocations plans.
The provocation didn't succeed,
The common sense prevails.
No war began.

Time for madness.
Confrontation,
Confrontation
Of the nations.
Time for madness.
Escalation,
Domination...

It's a crisis.
Time for madness.
It's a crisis
Of the nations.
Escalation,
Domination.
False temptation...

The compromise verdict
Didn't not comply with anyone.
The Soviets are displeased
And Pentagon is too.
Fidel thinks that the Soviets
Have betrayed their Cuban friends.
Mankind escaped the great
Fatal catastrophe...
Cold war goes on.

It's a crisis.
Time for madness.
It's a crisis
Of the nations.
Escalation,
Domination.
False temptation...
