Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's the drink that you don't pour
Now when you take one sip, you won't need anymore
You're small as a beetle or big as a whale
Boom
Atomic cocktail
[Verse 2]
Falls and splash all around the place
When you see it coming, just grab your suitcase
It'll send you through the sky like airmail
Boom
Atomic cocktail
[Chorus]
You push a button, turn a dial
Your work is done for miles and miles
When it hits, it's bound to shake
Because it feel just like an earthquake
[Verse 3]
That's the drink that you don't pour
When you take one sip, you won't need anymore
You're small as a beetle or big as a whale
Boom
Atomic cocktail
(Instrumental Break)
[Chorus]
Push a button, turn a dial
Your work is done for miles and miles
When it hits, it's bound to shake
Because it feels like an earthquake
[Verse 4]
That's the drink that you don't pour
Now when you take one sip, you won't need anymore
If you're small as a beetle or big as a whale
Boom
Atomic cocktail
