lyrics

everybody's screaming mercury's in retrograde
i keep my tv tuned to the evil eye
i keep my dreaming tuned to the whistle of the bomb
screaming through the clouds, makes the second sun
do you mind if i yell hell is coming, wonder why
let's pick out the paintings for the extinction room
the future is not necessarily all gloom and doom
but hey, it sure feels that way
sometimes it feels that way
sometimes it feels that way
sometimes it feels that way
i ran out of steam in the middle of my dream
i lost the train to what became the storyline
i only can recall, the wrong popsicle
and a staring contest with an old friend of mine
who is safe in heaven dead, given his half life
somewhat free from the meatwheel 'til the end of time
so i steal a kerouac line for the body of my gun
'cause i point it at myself, you see, from time to time
in this half life
i see you again
at the end of time
at the end of time
at the end of time
at the end of time
