End of the World

It’s the end of the world and it’s just you and me
I know it might sound crazy but I always knew it would end up this way
The building’s were collapsing and the sky was on fire
I said, «there's nothing to be afraid of» and you said, «you're a terrible liar»
You looked like an angel and I prayed you had wings
So I could hitch a ride on up to heaven and try to slip through them pearly
gates
Because it’s the end of the world and it’s just you and me
Any second now that sun will come tumbling like a cannon ball and go out in the
sea
You held my hand as the sky ripped in two
Before it all came crashing down you said, «I love you»
And I knew right then that these would be my last words
So I said: kiss me quick baby, it’s the end of the world
Kiss me quick baby, it’s the end of the world
The rich were drinking martini’s on a spaceship to the moon
While the poor pulled out their hair and wrung their hands and waited around
for their doom
And god shook his head as his voice shook the sky
He said, «I told you once, it wasn’t gonna be water, but fire next time»
The ground started trembling then everything went quiet
I saw that you were crying and so I pulled you in tight
I looked deep into your eyes as I leaned you back
Then I kissed you hard as everything went black
