The Lyrics

Flying past the moon. . .
End of days about to start.
Leave behind that pit of fire
As the pure of heart depart.
End of the world, it is planned. . .
Another world: there will bliss be.

Fill the till of wrong
Man who says that we’re gonna soar,
Claiming we’ll be gone for
This day until evermore.
End of the world will ensue,
Another world will come due.

Fill the till of con
Man who says that we’re gonna soar.
He’s the one we fawn for
Make radio ratings soar
(Bulge his bank account with more).
End of the world won’t ensue;
We’re in this world; another world won’t come true.
