End Of The World

On the last day of the world 
On the last day of history 
I'm gonna live like I always wanted 
I'm gonna live like I really was free
And when it finally happens 
When they say it on TV 
You can bet your life that I'll be the first one 
Dancing in the street 

You'll have your scientist expert nuclear physicist 
Saying that he can't explain 
Maybe it's a meteor nuclear bomb missile launch 
A final plague acid rain 
Then he'll tell you it's the last day of your life 
And you must not leave your home 
There'll be millions of people all around the world 
Praying to the CNN god alone 

But I'm gonna dance And I'm gonna sing 
When I hear those words said 
I'm gonna smash my favorite guitar 
Burn every book I've ever read 
Then I'm gonna gather all my friends together 
We'll get drunk and we'll get high 
And then we'll chain smoke cigarettes 
It doesn't matter 'cos we're all gonna die 

I'm gonna tear down the main city street 
In a stolen police car 
Record the world's trashiest song 
And make myself a star 
Then I'm gonna come back home and sit and think 
About every word I've said 
Take a photo of myself as a souvenir 
'Cos by the end of the day I'll be dead 

And then I'll come round to your place 
With a flower and a song 
I'm gonna rest my tired head in your lap 
And cry about all the things I've done wrong 
Then I'm gonna look at you just one last time 
And smile at the life I chose 
Then let one final tear past my eye 
Before the world explodes
