I’m the world ending
Hear my philosophy
you who have died prehumously:
“Who knows? Perhaps God will relent!”
I’m the world ending
Listen to the coach
you who spurn the labyrinth:
“At least we avoided the wooden spoon!”
I’m the world ending
Your majesty, I have a secret message for you
you whose belly enfolds my war:
“Coffee and cake for five dollars!”
I’m the world ending
Watch me – I’m the President
you who look on and know nothing:
“I’m smiling ’cos I”ve got nothin’ to say!”
I’m the world ending
Prime Minster’s poodle to boot
you siphons and sickos and bludgers:
“I despise you all and your choice to work!”
I’m the world ending
Download my preacher’s podcast
you who desire the one true word:
“You need more money!”
I’m the world ending
I’m coming clean
you who judge all and witness none:
“Someone put it in my pocket!”
I’m the world ending
Pay heed to my words of wisdom
you who gorge on hatred’s harvest:
“Who can endure the Day of His coming?”
I’m the world ending
Look here – I’ve been born!
