"It's The End Of The World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)" lyrics
(originally by R.E.M.)
That's great, it starts with an earthquake
Birds and snakes and aeroplanes
Lenny Bruce is not afraid
Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn
World serves its own needs, don't mis-serve your own needs
Speed it up a notch, speed, grunt, no, strength
The ladder starts to clatter with a fear of height, down, height
Wire in a fire, represent the seven games
And a government for hire and a combat site
Left her, wasn't coming in a hurry with the furies breathing down your neck
Team by team, reporters baffled, trumped, tethered cropped
Look at that low plane, fine then
Uh-oh overflow, population, common group, but it'll do
Save yourself, serve yourself
World serves its own needs, listen to your heart bleed
Tell me with the rapture and the reverent in the right, right
You vitriolic, patriotic, slam fight, bright light
Feeling pretty psyched
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
And I feel fine
Six o'clock, T.V. hour
Don't get caught in foreign tower
Slash and burn, return, listen to yourself churn
Lock him in uniform, book burning, bloodletting
Every motive escalate, automotive incinerate
Light a candle, light a motive, step down, step down
Watch your heel crush, crush, uh oh
This means no fear, cavalier, renegade and steering clear
A tournament, a tournament, a tournament of lies
Offer me solutions, offer me alternatives
And I decline
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
(Time I had some time alone)
And I feel fine
I feel fine
I feel fine
I feel fine
I feel fine
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
And I feel fine
(I feel fine, I feel fine, I feel fine)
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
(Time I had some time alone)
And I feel fine
Birds and snakes and aeroplanes
Lenny Bruce is not afraid
Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn
World serves its own needs, don't mis-serve your own needs
Speed it up a notch, speed, grunt, no, strength
The ladder starts to clatter with a fear of height, down, height
Wire in a fire, represent the seven games
And a government for hire and a combat site
Left her, wasn't coming in a hurry with the furies breathing down your neck
Team by team, reporters baffled, trumped, tethered cropped
Look at that low plane, fine then
Uh-oh overflow, population, common group, but it'll do
Save yourself, serve yourself
World serves its own needs, listen to your heart bleed
Tell me with the rapture and the reverent in the right, right
You vitriolic, patriotic, slam fight, bright light
Feeling pretty psyched
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
And I feel fine
Six o'clock, T.V. hour
Don't get caught in foreign tower
Slash and burn, return, listen to yourself churn
Lock him in uniform, book burning, bloodletting
Every motive escalate, automotive incinerate
Light a candle, light a motive, step down, step down
Watch your heel crush, crush, uh oh
This means no fear, cavalier, renegade and steering clear
A tournament, a tournament, a tournament of lies
Offer me solutions, offer me alternatives
And I decline
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
(Time I had some time alone)
And I feel fine
I feel fine
I feel fine
I feel fine
I feel fine
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
And I feel fine
(I feel fine, I feel fine, I feel fine)
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
(Time I had some time alone)
And I feel fine
