End of the World

When you read the news Does it make you sick? Murder, money, and politics Gonna fill you up Get your bullshit fix It's the end of the world Grab your crucifix And fall to your knees And beg "God please, have mercy on me" (Mercy!) When you turn on the TV What do you get? Sex, lies, scandal, violence Like the end of a gun Pressed against your lips It's the end of the world Grab your crucifix And fall to your knees And beg "God please, have mercy on me" When you can't buy gas And you can't pay rent And what you've got left Is the Government's No win No future No benefit It's the end of the world Grab your crucifix And fall to your knees And beg "God please, have mercy on me" Coming out of the hypocrisy Coming out of the bureaucracy Coming in to lead a war They're a shame! You can ignore what you cannot see You can believe in a lie You can run away from anything Until you open your eyes No rest for the wicked Yeah, they never quit Watching, waiting For the next trick We won't be celebrating When the atom's split It's the end of the world Grab your crucifix And fall to your knees And beg "God please!, have mercy on me" Coming out of the hypocrisy Coming out of the bureaucracy Coming in to lead a war They're a shame! You can ignore what you cannot see You can believe in a lie You can run away from anything Until you open your eyes Coming out of the hypocrisy Coming out of the bureaucracy Coming in to lead a war They're a shame!
