Though it strikes you as seeming a little absurd
|
I'm here to announce the end of the world
|
It'll happen sometime between now and high noon
|
It doesn't give you much time as it's happening real soon
|
It'll start with a whimper, it'll end with a bang
|
It'll leave a big hole where we could have sang
|
|
This is the end
|
The end of the world
|
For five thousand years
|
You must surely have heard
|
Nostradamus and Jesus and Buddah and Me
|
We said it was coming
|
Now just wait and see
|
|
So everyone outside look up at the sky
|
It's the last time you'll see it so wave it goodbye
|
You took it for granted you thought it was free
|
Say goodbye to the leaves, the trees, and the sea
|
There's nothing more useless than a car that won't start
|
But it's even more useless at the end of the world
|
