lyrics

Apocalypse Boogie

Verse:
You think that life is simply grand
You think that it's all just perfect and
You're eatin' your slice of buttered bread
and then CRASH,BOOM you're dead.

What's that, you say? I can't be right?
You're certain I'm very wrong in spite
of the fire raining from the skies?
Well, I'll give you my advice:

Chorus:
Apocalypse Boogie
Dance 'till the world is done
Apocalypse Boogie
Let's make the end more fun
Apocalypse Boogie
'Cuz we got nothin' better to do
Apocalypse Boogie
It's the end of the world and we're screwed

Verse:
We're all in agreement; that's it, we're done
At least we had a pretty good run
We all might have a few regrets
Before we see how bad it gets.
How many ways could it go wrong?
Well, how much time do I have left in this song?
I guess I could list a few of the ways
That we might reach the end of days...

Call and response:
How do you feel about a super volcano?
You'll all agree that would be no bueno!
What about a massive alien invasion?
I didn't factor that into my equation!
Maybe a global thermonuclear war!
I'm sure we've all heard that one before.
Eaten up by self-replicating nanobots?
Ooh, the grey goo has my stomach in knots!
Does an A.I. takeover strike a chord?
I, for one, welcome our robot overlords!
We could be struck by cosmic radiation!
Gives Ben Grimm heart palpatations!
Perhaps a megadose of solar flares?
Sure that's cosmic radiation, too; who cares?
We could all starve in an ecological collapse
Or we gorge ourselves to death, perhaps!
Oppression under a brutal police state!
Not the end of the world, but yeah, it's not great!
Maybe the end will come from global warming!
With wildfires and heatwaves and hurricanes storming!
What about a deadly global pandemic?
I think we all know it's not purely academic.
It could even be an asteroid impact!
Hey, they could make a hit movie of that!

Chorus:
Apocalypse Boogie
Dance 'till we meet our doom
Apocalypse Boogie
We'll watch it all go kaboom
Apocalypse Boogie
Drink a whole bottle of red
Apocalypse Boogie
It's no good to us when we're dead

Bridge:
The earth dances the apocalypse boogie
The moon gives it a very rough noogie
It's quick and rough and extremely violent
The people cry out and are quickly silenced

Chorus:
Apocalypse Boogie
Dance 'till humanity's dead
Apocalypse Boogie
Can I just take a nap instead?
Apocalypse Boogie
A last dance with all of your friends
Apocalypse Boogie
Let's turn
and burn
and freeze
and sneeze
and dance 'till we reach the end
