Lyrics
MADNESS (The End of The World is Nigh)
Are you out, looking in, or thinking of joining, or just doing that January thing
Come on, come in, you're starting to win, sipping on poodle n gin
All hail our conquering leaders, a toast to the host with the most,
Who afford the plaudits to those that lord it, and bank roll them in notes
Here come the men in white coats
We're all in a moment of madness, show n tell from your padded cell
trading sanity for vanity and health for wealth, we're selling off heaven to hell
Oh well, at least its a warm farewell
(La, la, la, lie)
TV, TV on the wall, Who is the fairest of them all
Its that crazy lady, pushin up daisies, going on 94
Industrial filler, botox for dinner a side of peroxide and bleach
She thinks she's fantastic, but most of it's plastic, gone from beauty to beast
and she gives me the creeps
We're all in this moment of madness, show n tell from your padded cell
trading sanity for vanity and health for wealth, we're selling off heaven to hell
Oh well, I'll bid you a warm farewell
We're all in a moment of madness, with King George baked in a pie
Torment & sadness, n' a pinch of gladness, but all you can taste is a lie
and a poke in the eye when you die, goodbye, The end of the World is nigh
(La, la, la, lie)
A shot in the arm to keep us all calm, and carry on in our animal farm
Better still, take a pill and a thrill, rack up the bills, till your mentally ill
Your down take an upper, enjoy your last supper, blame one another and claim your a nutter
Celebs & plebs in gold plated cars while a man in the street sleeps under the stars
Dictators & Presidents & Billionaires, in towers, in power but nobody cares
Start thinking, stop drinking and stop the sinking, open your eyes and realise
it's the End of the World
Chorus
