Lyrics
When I wrote this I was dreamin' So excuse me if it goes astray But when I woke up this mornin' Could have sworn it was judgment day The sky was all purple There were people runnin' everywhere I tried to run from the destruction You know I didn't even care Everybody's got a bomb we could all die here today But if I'm gonna die I'm gonna fuck my life away! They say two thousand zero, zero, party over, oops, out of time! The world spreads it's legs like it's 1999!
