Space Monkey Mafia Lyrics

That's great, it starts with an earthquake
Birds and snakes, an aeroplane, and Billy Joel is not afraid

Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn
World serves its own needs, don't misserve your own needs
Feed it up a knock, speed, grunt, no, strength
The ladder starts to clatter with a fear of height, down, height
Wire in a fire, represent the seven games
And a government for hire and a combat site
Left her, wasn't coming in a hurry with the Furies breathing down your neck

(Harry Truman, Doris Day
Red China, Johnnie Ray
South Pacific, Walter Winchell
Joe DiMaggio
Joe McCarthy, Richard Nixon
Studebaker, television
North Korea, South Korea
Marilyn Monroe
Rosenbergs, H-Bomb
Sugar Ray, Panmunjom
Brando, The King and I
And the Catcher in the Rye
Eisenhower, vaccine
England's got a new queen
Marciano, Liberace
Santayana goodbye)

It's the end of the world as we know it (We didn't start the fire)
It's the end of the world as we know it (It was always burning since the world's been turning)
It's the end of the world as we know it (We didn't start the fire)
And I feel fine (No, we didn't light it but we tried to fight it)

Team by team, reporters baffled, trumped, tethered, cropped
Look at that low plane, fine, then
Uh-oh, overflow, population, common group
But it'll do, save yourself, serve yourself
World serves its own needs, listen to your heart bleed
Tell me with the Rapture and the reverent in the right, right
You vitriolic, patriotic, slam fight, bright light
Feeling pretty psyched

(Joseph Stalin, Malenkov
Nasser and Prokofiev
Rockefeller, Campanella
Communist Bloc
Roy Cohn, Juan Perón
Toscanini, Dacron
Dien Bien Phu falls
"Rock Around the Clock"
Einstein, James Dean
Brooklyn's got a winning team
Davy Crockett, Peter Pan
Elvis Presley, Disneyland
Bardot, Budapest
Alabama, Khrushchev
Princess Grace, Peyton Place
Trouble in the Suez)

It's the end of the world as we know it (We didn't start the fire)
It's the end of the world as we know it (It was always burning since the world's been turning
It's the end of the world as we know it (We didn't start the fire)
And I feel fine (No, we didn't light it but we tried to fight it)

Six o'clock, TV hour, don't get caught in foreign tower
Slash and burn, return, listen to yourself churn
Lock him in uniform, book burning, bloodletting
Every motive escalate, automotive incinerate
Light a candle, light a motive, step down, step down
Watch your heel crush, crush, uh-oh
This means no fear, cavalier, renegade and steering clear
A tournament, a tournament, a tournament of lies
Offer me solutions, offer me alternatives, and I decline

(Little Rock, Pasternak
Mickey Mantle, Kerouac
Sputnik, Chou En-Lai
Bridge On the River Kwai
Lebanon, Charles de Gaulle
California baseball

Children of Thalidomide
Buddy Holly, Ben-Hur
Space monkey, Mafia

Chubby Checker, Psycho
Belgians in the Congo)

It's the end of the world as we know it (We didn't start the fire)
It's the end of the world as we know it (It was always burning since the world's been turning)
It's the end of the world as we know it (We didn't start the fire)
And I feel fine (No, we didn't light it but we tried to fight it)
I feel fine

The other night I dreamt a nice continental drift divide
Mountains sit in a line, Leonard Bernstein
Leonid Brezhnev, Lenny Bruce, and Lester Bangs
Birthday party, cheesecake, jellybean, boom
You symbiotic, patriotic, slam but neck, right? Right

(Hemingway, Eichmann
Stranger in a Strange Land
Dylan, Berlin
Bay of Pigs Invasion
Lawrence of Arabia
British Beatlemania
Ole' Miss, John Glenn
Liston beats Patterson
Pope Paul, Malcolm X
British politician sex
JFK, blown away
What else do I have to say?)

It's the end of the world as we know it (We didn't start the fire)
It's the end of the world as we know it (It was always burning since the world's been turning)
It's the end of the world as we know it (We didn't start the fire)
And I feel fine (No, we didn't light it but we tried to fight it)

It's the end of the world as we know it (We didn't start the fire)
It's the end of the world as we know it (It was always burning since the world's been turning)
It's the end of the world as we know it (We didn't start the fire)
And I feel fine (But when we are gone, it will still burn on and on)

It's the end of the world as we know it (We didn't start the fire)
It's the end of the world as we know it (It was always burning since the world's been turning)
It's the end of the world as we know it (We didn't start the fire)
And I feel fine (No, we didn't light it but we tried to fight it)
I feel fine

On and on
And on and on
And on and on
And on and on
And on and on
And on and on
And on and on
And on and on and
