Great Big Sea - The End Of The World As We Know It lyrics

It's the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine
That's great, it starts with an earthquake, birds,
snakes, an aeroplanes, Lenny Bruce is not afraid
Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn - world
serves its own needs, dummy serve your own needs Feed
it off an aux speak, grunt, no, strength, Ladder
start to clatter with fear fight down height Wire
in a fire, 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 playing! 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 dummy with the rapture and
the revered and the right, right You vitriolic,
patriotic, slam, fight, bright light, feeling pretty
psyched
CHORUS:
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, and I feel fine
Six o'clock - TV hour Don't get caught in foreign
towers Slash and burn, return, listen to yourself
churn Locking in, uniforming, book burning, blood
letting Every motive escalate Automotive incinerate
Light a votive, light a candle Step down, step down
Watch your heel crush, crushed, uh-oh, this means no
fear cavalier Renegade steer clear! A tournament,
tournament, a tournament of lies Offer me solutions,
offer me alternatives and I decline
CHORUS x 2
The other night I dreamt of knives, continental
drift divide Mountains sit in a line, Leonard
Bernstein Leonid Brezhnev, Lenny Bruce and Lester
Bangs Birthday party, cheesecake, jelly bean, boom! You
symbiotic, patriotic, slam book neck, right? Right
CHORUS x 2
