Where Are All The Scientists Now?

(album: Let Live & Let Ghosts - 2008)

It starts with a flash and a blast of
Plaster and glass as an earthquake
Came flooding through my living room

The sky was black with thinking
As it began to sink, I thought of you

And as the smoke came flooding in beneath the doorway
I saw Satan shaking hands, holding a briefcase
Where inside there's a plan that contains an X Command
For soldiers in the desert and toy soldiers marching in the sand

It's the end of the world, la da di da da da da da

I'm innocent, I'm innocent
Keep me out of this
Keep me out of this, keep me out of this
Keep me out of this

It's the end of the world, la da di da da da da da

Laaa daa daa daa da daa da daa da daa
Laaa daa daa daa da daa da daa da daa
Laaa daa daa daa da daa da daa da daa

It's the end of the world, la da di da da da da da
It's the end of the world, la da di da da da da da
It's the end of the world, la da di da da da da da
It's the end of the world, la da di da da da da da

Laaa daa daa daa da daa da daa da daa
Laaa daa daa daa da daa da daa da daa
Laaa daa daa daa da daa da daa da daa

We survived!
They lit up the inside of the moon
We survived!
To remind us that help would be arriving soon
We survived!
Hanging tinsel in clear view
Erecting scaffolding and Christmas lights
Dedicated and renovated for you

We survived!
They lit up the inside of the moon
We survived!
Hanging tinsel in clear view
We survived!
Erecting scaffolding and Christmas lights
Dedicated and renovated for you

And taking a cue from the animals burrowing down
You dug a hole inside the architecture
A shelter just to be sure
