|
That's great, it starts with an earthquake.
|
Birds and snakes, an aeroplane and Lenny Bruce is not afraid.
|
Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn.
|
World serves its own needs, don't misserve your own needs.
|
Feed it up a knock, grunt, no, strength, no,
|
Ladder structure to clatter with fear fight down height.
|
Fire in a wire, representing seven games.
|
A government for hire and a combat site.
|
Left of west and coming in a hurry,
|
With the furies breathing down your neck.
|
Team by team reporters baffled, trumped, tethered cropped.
|
Look at that low plane! Fine, then.
|
Uh oh, overflow, population, common food, but it'll do.
|
Save yourself, serve yourself, world serves its own needs.
|
Listen to your heart bleed tell me with the rapture.
|
And the revered and the right, right.
|
You vitriolic, patriotic, slam, fight,
|
Bright light, feeling pretty psyched.
|
|
It's the end of the world as we know it.
|
It's the end of the world as we know it.
|
It's the end of the world as we know it
|
But I feel fine.
|
|
Six o'clock - TV hour, don't get caught in foreign towers.
|
Slash and burn, return, listen to yourself churn.
|
Locking him in uniform and book burning, blood letting.
|
Every motive escalate. Automotive incinerate.
|
Light a candle, light a votive. Step down, step down.
|
Watch your heel crush, crushed, uh oh, this means no fear cavalier.
|
Renegade steer clear! A tournament, a tournament, a tournament of lies.
|
Offer me solutions, offer me alternatives, I decline.
|
|
It's the end of the world as we know it.
|
It's the end of the world as we know it.
|
It's the end of the world as we know it.
|
I feel fine.
|
I feel fine.
|
|
The other night I tripped a nice continental drift divide.
|
Mount St. Edelite, Leonard Bernstein.
|
Leonid Brezhnev, Lenny Bruce and Lester Bangs.
|
Birthday party, cheesecake, jelly bean, boom!
|
You symbiotic, patriotic, slam book neck, right? Right.
|
|
It's the end of the world as we know it.
|
It's the end of the world as we know it.
|
It's the end of the world as we know it.
|
I feel fine.
|
|
It's time, I spent some time alone.
|
It's time, I spent some time alone.
|
It's time, I spent some time alone.
|
|
It's the end of the world as we know it.
|
It's the end of the world as we know it.
|
It's the end of the world as we know it
|
I feel fine.
