Another day goes by. How many are left?
How many days 'till Doomsday? Until the world is bereft
-
Eat and drink be merry, tomorrow you might die
And fifty million others, the day appointed does draw nigh
-
Pretend it isn't so, keep your head stuck in the sand
World War III is coming...you're too dumb to understand
-
In atomic fire you'll burn, incinerated on the spot
If you're not you'll wish were, in agony you'll rot
-
To radiation you'll succumb...takes three weeks for you to die
Three weeks to recollect, you won't have the strength to cry
-
Tomorrow or next week? Don't know when but soon
Put your house in order, with Death you will commune
