R.E.M. - End Of The World As We Know It lyrics

That's great it starts with an earthquake
Birds and snakes and aeroplanes
And Lenny Bruce is not afraid

Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn
World serves it's own needs
Dummy serve your own needs
Feed it off an aux speak grunt no
Ladder with a clatter fight
Fear flight down height
Wire in a fire representing seven games and a
Government for hire in a combat site
Left of west and coming in a hurry
With the furies breathing down your neck

Team by team reporters
Baffled, trumped, tethered, cropped
Look at that low playing, fine, then
Uh oh overflow, population common food
But it'll do save yourself, serve yourself
World serves it's own needs
Listen to your heart bleed dummy with the
Rapture and the revered and the right, right
Vitreolic, patriotic stand, 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 tv hour
Don't get caught in foreign towers
Slash and burn, return
Listen to yourself churn
Locking in, uniforming, book-burning
Blood letting
Every motive escalate, automotive incinerate
Light a candle, light a votive
Step down step down watch your heel, crush
Crushed uh oh this means
No fear cavalier, renegade, steer 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
(It's time I had some time alone)
And 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
(It's time I had some time alone)

The other night I dreamt of knives
Continental drift divide
Mountains sit in a line, Leonard Bernstein
Leonid Brezhnev, Lenny Bruce and Lester Bangs
Birthday party, cheescake, jellybean
Boom you symbiotic patriotic slam book neck
Right? Right!

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
(It's time I had some time alone)
And 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
(It's time I had some time alone)
And 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

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

It's the end of the world as we know it
