be it the millenium bug, chem-trails, mutagen hidden in the sewers, planetary collision, or even the inevitable zombie apocalypse; there's no shortage of things out there ready to blast the world back to year dot...
but if david essex starts wittering on about living underground, fell free to shut him outside...
lyrics
What is a fish, if it’s not a fish?
There’s no common factor that makes it a fish…
And if my teachers could see me, well they would be stunned
Science is exciting! Physics is fun!
…and a tomato? A tomato is a fruit…
The courgettes grew all hairy, and the modern world is doomed…(!)
You can’t travel in time – “Thank-you Einstein”
Someone better tell the photons, cos I don’t think they’re listening.
We sent a car, in a rocket to Mars…
So why fake a landing on a much closer moon?
Bottle up the air – Freeze dry all the food
Making preparations as the modern world is doomed.
This is The New Apocalypse – Heads up baby, yeah this is it!
This is The New Apocalypse...
Put your head between your knees and purse your lips
Woah – Apocalypse! I’m not kidding, this is it!
This is The New Apocalypse...
Put your head between your knees and purse your lips
And the Mayans weren’t wrong; they said all along
This is the dawn of a new way of thinking…
Welcome to the 13th B’uk’tan, what we gonna do?
Why not crash the planet into a rogue moon?!
And I’ll be alright, underground in my bunker
At the time when the country sinks under
The earthquakes, and tsunamis that follow…
I don’t think there’s gonna be a world tomorrow!
This is The New Apocalypse – Heads up baby, yeah this is it!
This is The New Apocalypse...
Put your head between your knees and purse your lips
Woah – Apocalypse! I’m not kidding, this is it!
This is The New Apocalypse...
Put your head between your knees and purse your lips
We can start over – Build it up again
We can start over – Build it up again
We can start over – Build it up again
We can start over – Build it up again
Unless it is actually the goddamned rapture!!
This is The New Apocalypse – Heads up baby, yeah this is it!
This is The New Apocalypse...
Put your head between your knees and purse your lips
Woah – Apocalypse! I’m not kidding, this is it!
This is The New Apocalypse...
Put your head between your knees and prepare...
To kiss your ass goodbye
