Down on the surface everyone's dead The end of days, my computer said Safe in my rocket, destination moon Termination is due, it's all over soon Got a ringside ticket to watch the show Remains to be seen which way it'll go First a few fireworks as continents split The ice is all gone, now the tidal waves hit Sinking the lands until everything's gone Permanent darkness where our star once shone Volcanic eruptions fifteen miles high Reach out to burn and scorch the sky It's all our fault, we'll eternally hang We've gone out as we started, with a Big Bang
Safe in my cockpit in the reaches of space A single tear falls for the human race I wrote a lament but I binned it today No-one left to read it anyway Now much more space where once was a rock I fire up the engines and start to take stock Ignore the starcharts, head that-a-way Hope to find somewhere with air that's ok I've got fuel for a century and plenty of food That's not exactly improving my mood For I'm forever alone, and pretty much fucked Ah well. Where's the self destruct...
