Here Comes the Flood - The Divine Comedy

Here comes the flood

Rivers of blood, baby

Here comes the quake

Evacuate while you still can

Here comes the fire

Our funeral pyre, baby

Here comes the flood

Here comes the blood bath

Here comes the fly

Fifty foot high, baby

Here comes the war

More blood and gore

Than you can stand

Here comes the race

From outer space, baby

It’s all over

We’re all gonna die

If the good Lord intended me to live in LA

He’d have given me a machine gun

Still, here I am, just another little worried citizen of

This modern-day Pompeii

Waiting for the melt-down, the show-down

The Great American close-down

When that fault-line that runs right through society’s fabric

Finally snaps and the whole damn thing starts unravelling

Why watch the sports channel, when you can watch CNN?

Ladies and Gentlemen, the greatest race in history

The race to end all races

In fact, the race to end history

In lane one: the San Andreas Fault

In lane two: Global Recession

In three: El Nino

In four: Chemical War

Lane five: Inter-Racial Conflict

Lane six: Auto Immune Deficiency Syndrome

On your marks.

Get Set.

Wait for it… Go!

Here comes the flood

Rivers of blood, baby

Here comes the bomb

It won' t be long

Till we’re all gone

Here comes the sun

Run baby run, baby

If you believe all that you read

You’ll know the end is nigh

We’re all gonna die!
