Lyrics

The world is spinnin' madly
Seeing kaleidoscopic lights
It's like we've all been hypnotized
As we're driftin' off to paradise
Well, I used to go by Johnny, but now you can call me Jackie O
Uh-huh, walkin' in stilettos, breakin' down the walls like Jericho
Today, I woke up cryin', so I went into a church to pray
They said, "Excuse me, but you'll have to leave or we're callin' security"
The headlines got us thinking that we're all gonna die
Then convince us that we have to buy a ticket for the afterlife
Well, it's European summer and the skies are lookin' kinda mean
Well, I'm thinkin' of a holiday, what's the weather like in Kyiv?
(Uh, uh)
Yeah, the sun is peekin' out over all the tired faces
Well, my friends were goin' out last night and I still haven't heard from them
The headlines got us thinking that we're all gonna die
Then convince us that we have to buy a ticket for the afterlife
I guess I'll see you in the afterlife
I guess I'll see you in the afterlife
I guess I'll see you in the afterlife
I guess I'll see you in the afterlife
