It's The End Of The World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)

G                             
That's great, it starts with an 
   Cmaj7                        
earthquake, birds and snakes, an 
     G
airplane -
                  Cmaj7     G
Lenny Bruce is not afraid. Eye of a 
hurricane, listen to yourself churn 
-
 Cmaj7                           
world serves its own needs, dummy 
serve your own needs. Feed it off a 
 G
aux.,
speak, grunt no, strength. The 
Cmaj7
ladder starts to clatter with the 
fear fight,
              Bb             
down, height. Wire in a fire, 
represent the seven games in a 
 Am
government for
                         G
hire and a combat site. Left of West
 and coming in a hurry with the 
furies
           Cmaj7          G
breathing down your neck. Team by 
team reporters baffled, trumpped, 
tethered
               Cmaj7               
cropped. Look at that "low plane!" 
      G
Fine, then. Uh oh, overflow, 
population,
                 Cmaj7
common food, but it'll do. Save 
yourself, serve yourself. World 
serves its
 G                             
own needs, listen to your heart 
bleed. Dummy with the rapture and 
 Cmaj7
the
reverent in the right - Right. You 
           Bb
vitriolic, patriotic, slam, fight, 
bright
        Am
light, feeling pretty psyched.

          G          Dsus2       
It's the end of the world as we know
Am
 it.

know it and I feel fine.


G                              
Six o'clock - TV hour. Don't get 
                           Cmaj7
caught in foreign tower. Slash and 
burn,
return, listen to yourself churn. 
              G
Lock him in uniform and book 
burning,
                   Cmaj7   
blood letting. Every motive 
escalate. Automotive incinerate. 
                  G
Light a candle,
light a motive. Step down, step 
                   Cmaj7
down. Watch a heel crush, crush. Uh 
oh,
            G                 
this means no fear - cavalier. 
Renegade and steer clear! A 
               Cmaj7
tournament,
a tournament, a tournament of lies. 
             Bb
Offer me solutions, offer me 
alternatives
    Am
and I decline.

Leonard Bernstein. Leonid Breshnev, 
Lenny Bruce and Lester Bangs.

Birthday party, cheesecake, jelly

slam, but neck, right? Right.
