Lyrics

Only just the end of the world
That's what!
Nothing but the end of the world
Comes the revolution—
Don't laugh! It's coming!
Can't you hear the sound of that distant drumming?
Once the revolution is up and humming
That'll be the end of the world
Your world:
The world of private jets and screening rooms
And hundred-thousand-bucks-an-ounce designer perfumes
The world of Wall Street thieves and fashionistas
And Lamborghinis and Vodkatinis
It's all so over!
Don't you know that?
Oh, Fritz — a little joy, per favavere!
Life is pleasure!
We have this day
We have our charmful circle
You mean charmed
It's my English
But why not?
Call us charmful
And rejoice, Fritz, rejoice!
Wake up, it's the end of the world, you morons
Welcome to the end of
Power brokers and hydrofractors
And underpaid teachers
And overpaid actors
And disappearing polar bears
And bought-and-sold elections
And infinity pools
And Damien Hirsts
And phony bank accounts—
With safe deposit boxes in
Corrupt banana rat holes
Like Moranda!
They're gonna blow your mergers
And your laptops
And your bitcoins
All to bits!
Fritz
And abracadabra, here's Café Everything!
What a perfect day
What a perfect day
