It's The End Of The World Lyrics - Play - Great Big Sea

That's great, it starts with an earthquake 

Birds, snakes, and 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 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, tournament, a tournament of lies 

Offer me solutions, offer me alternatives and I decline 

[Chorus: Repeat 2X] 

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: Repeat 2X]
