Oh, launched all the world's nukes this morning 

Hoping it would kick-start something 

Some of them went off course and hit the moon instead 

It was kinda pretty. 

Hasn't been a whole lot of looting 

On the other hand, oh, it's fucking freezing 

Someone on TV said something about going underground… 

Guess we better start digging. 

What were you doing for those eight and a half minutes? 

Was it mean, was it petty, or did you realize you were sorry 

And that you love them? 

I saw an astronomer break down on CNN 

He said, “I'm a scientist, not your fucking clergyman!” 

And no one's going nowhere ‘cause the cars are all frozen 

They give the power plants ten days 

But the sky is like a dome of black metal flake 

And stars bleed together in phosphorescent lakes 

And a dead black disk slides silently overhead 

It's fucking beautiful is what it is. 

What were you doing for those eight and a half minutes? 

Was it mean, was it petty, or did you realize you were sorry 

And that you love them? 

When I die I'm going to heaven 

Leave it to the cockroaches and the 7-11s 

But it'd be nice to think we could get it right down here just once…
