Lyrics
|
That's
|
great!
|
It
|
starts
|
with
|
an
|
earthquake, /
|
Birds
|
and
|
snakes,
|
an
|
aeroplane /
|
Lenny
|
Bruce
|
is
|
not
|
afraid /
|
Eye
|
of
|
a
|
hurricane,
|
listen
|
to
|
yourself
|
churn /
|
World
|
serves
|
its
|
own
|
needs,
|
don't
|
mis-serve
|
serve
|
your
|
own
|
needs /
|
Speed
|
it
|
up
|
a
|
notch
|
speed,
|
grunt,
|
no
|
strength /
|
The
|
ladder
|
starts
|
to
|
clatter
|
with
|
fear
|
of
|
height
|
down,
|
height /
|
Wire
|
in
|
a
|
|
Lyrics
|
fire,
|
representing
|
seven
|
games /
|
In
|
a
|
government
|
for
|
hire
|
and
|
a
|
combat
|
site /
|
Left
|
of
|
west
|
and
|
coming
|
in
|
a
|
hurry /
|
With
|
the
|
furies
|
breathing
|
down
|
your
|
neck /
|
Team
|
by
|
team
|
reporters
|
baffled,
|
trump,
|
tethered,
|
crop /
|
Look
|
at
|
that
|
low
|
plane!
|
Fine
|
then /
|
Uh
|
oh,
|
overflow,
|
population,
|
common
|
food /
|
But
|
it'll
|
do.
|
Save
|
yourself,
|
serve
|
yourself /
|
World
|
serves
|
its
|
|
Lyrics
|
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 (x3) /
|
And
|
I
|
feel
|
fine /
|
Six
|
o'clock -
|
TV
|
hour /
|
Don't
|
get
|
caught
|
in
|
foreign
|
tower /
|
Slash
|
and
|
burn,
|
return /
|
Listen
|
to
|
|
Lyrics
|
yourself
|
churn /
|
Lock
|
him
|
in
|
uniform
|
and
|
book
|
burning,
|
bloodletting /
|
Every
|
motive
|
escalate,
|
automotive
|
incinerate /
|
Light
|
a
|
candle,
|
light
|
a
|
votive /
|
Step
|
down,
|
step
|
down /
|
Watch
|
a
|
heel
|
crush,
|
crush /
|
Uh
|
oh,
|
this
|
means
|
no
|
fear,
|
cavalier /
|
Renegade
|
and
|
steer
|
clear! /
|
A
|
tournament,
|
A
|
tournament /
|
A
|
tournament
|
of
|
lies /
|
Offer
|
me
|
solutions,
|
offer
|
me
|
alternatives /
|
And
|
I
|
decline /
|
It's
|
|
Lyrics
|
the
|
end
|
of
|
the
|
world
|
as
|
we
|

it (x2) /

The

Continental

Speed it up a notch, speed, grunt, no strength.
At any rate, it should be correct now. Better late than never.
Also, no worries—I remember trying to figure out the lyrics in like 1989-1990 and R.E.M. refused to put their lyrics in cassette liners, so it was all guess work.
