Oh, what a time to be alive!
Wake up and smell the dynamite.
Keep your eyes locked tight to your screen,
Don’t believe everything that you see,
And you’ll find, that modern life’s a catastrophe.

Is it just me or does anyone else feel like this could be farewell?
Oh, we almost had it
But we pissed it all away.
Building walls and dropping bombs,
Stop the world I’m getting off.
But oh, we almost had it,
Never thought I’d see the day,
When the world went up in flames.
When the world went up in flames.

We all worship celebrities, desperate for an identity, 
But cigarettes and MDMA don’t give you substance.
You don’t think about what you say, 
Cuz’ your mouth is bigger than your brain.
It's a shame, so fake and you’re all the same.

Is it just me or does anyone else feel like this could be farewell?
Oh, we almost had it
But we pissed it all away.
Building walls and dropping bombs,
Stop the world I’m getting off.
But oh, we almost had it,
Never thought I’d see the day,
When the world went up in flames.

There’s a black cat up in the windows of Parliament,
There’s a man in the back of a black cab, talking about the good days,
When it all went up in flames,
Happy Judgement Day.
It all went up in flames,
Happy Judgement Day.

Is it just me or does anyone else feel like this could be farewell?
Oh, we almost had it
But we pissed it all away.(all away)
Building walls and dropping bombs,
Stop the world I’m getting off.
It’s been a long time coming,
Never thought I’d see the day,
Stop the world I’m coming,
Never thought I’d see the day,
When the world went up in flames.
When the world went up in flames.
