Electric Six
"Doom and Gloom and Doom and Gloom"
Our hearts will love you, our lips will kiss you
Our teeth will tear your flesh apart
The wheel of death and destruction is on display
Like a precious work of art.
I said, "It's such a coup, it's nothing new, it's nothing we haven't seen.
It's just a big to-do to punish you for being so unclean."
Our operators are standing by
To provide you with excellent service
The monotones make you want to die
And also understandably nervous
I spoke with Gerald Ford on the Ouija board and he said the whole thing stinks.
He said, "It's such a bore, it's nothing more than playing Tiddly-Winks."
So...
Doom and gloom and doom and gloom
Hounds of hell are howling at the moon
And we're visiting Joe Biden's tomb
And the eternal scent of time will run the course
Just like a headless horse without a horse
And I don't care what any of youse thinks
When I hit the iceberg, the iceberg sinks
I don't need your gravity
So, go ahead and slap your big X on me.
Our corporate masters made their profits
From their re-usable nightmare
The action news correspondent displays his marvelous shiny hair
He said "It's getting a little bit stuffy in here now
Don't ya think?
But never fear the weekends here
You can die if you pray for more"
Doom and doom and doom and gloom
Judgment day is surely coming soon
All the boys and girls stay in their room
Even though their story is about you
The story surely wouldn't be told without you
And the eternal scent of time will run the course
Just like a headless horse without a horse.
