about

A shadow entry for SpinTunes #5 Round 1... "write a song about the last day of work". Since the topic was sort of wide open, I made it about EVERYBODY's last day.

lyrics

I made fun of them, too
Just like you
When they said the end was coming soon
The celestial clock
Ran out of room on the rock
It's as simple as two plus two

Now, I'm a skeptical geek
Not some gullible freak
I've got no room for that New Age woo...
So imagine my surprise
When I looked at the skies
And saw a planetary bullet aimed right between my eyes...

[chorus]
Well, I'm gonna close shop at a quarter to five
I'm gonna get drunk
Gonna celebrate bein' alive
I'm gonna get crazy, maybe grab me a girl
And feel the passion rockin' at the end of the world...
I'm gonna grab me a beer and have me some fun
Until the clock strikes twelve on December 21
I'm gonna party my life away
On a Mayan Holiday

I've got a 401K
Tucked away
I thought that I was really smart
I could've bought me a boat
A house on the beach
Or a Formula racing car

Maybe indulge in a vice
Yeah, that sounds nice
Now that we know there's no consequence
Meanwhile on Channel Nine
The Bad Astronomy guy
Is shrugging at the camera
As Humanity ends...

[repeat chorus]
