Cousins-Cronk
It was on the stroke of midnight
On the final Christmas Eve
People all around were saying
'What do you believe ?'.
Streets were laid with burnished gold
Statues made of chrome
Upspoke the wicked messenger
'You're welcome to my home'.
(Everything's gonna be alright)
(Everything's gonna be alright)
(Everything's gonna be alright)
(Everything's gonna be alright)
Then tempers started flaring
As the heat began to rise
Fields of corn and rapeseed
Turned to dust before their eyes.
People started blaming
The changing weather map
The chrome began to tarnish
The gold was sold for scrap.
(Everything's gonna be alright)
(Everything's gonna be alright)
(Everything's gonna be alright)
(Everything's gonna be alright)
Then just before the end of time
The sun began to dim
People of the world
Began to sing a common hymn.
The Muslim kissed the Hindu
The Hindu kissed the Jew
The Jew kissed all the Buddhists
And the Christians joined the queue.
(Everything's gonna be alright)
(Everything's gonna be alright)
(Everything's gonna be alright)
(Everything's gonna be alright)
