1958 - Has anybody seen our bomb?

January '58 - the EEC
Europe seriously tries to unify
Benelux, France, Italy, Germany
(West), begin what still rumbles on today
I wonder, should we smile, or laugh, or cry
Hydrogen bombs dropped on the USA
By its own forces accidentally
CND marches begin all the way
From London to Berkshire. Fidel and Che
Are taking Cuba militarily
Close but no cigar, Batista. They cry
Over the Munich Air Crash to this day
Brazil, with Pele, win the World Cup. The
French bring back De Gaulle but lose colonies
