When you read the news
Does it make you sick?
Murder, money, politicsGonna fill you up
Get your bullshit fix
It's the end of the world
Grab your crucifixAnd fall to your knees
And beg, "God, please
Have mercy on me, mercy"When you turn on the TV
What do you get?
Sex, lies, scandal, violenceLike the end of a gun
Pressed against your lips
It's the end of the world
Grab your crucifixAnd fall to your knees
And beg, "God, please
Have mercy on me"When you can't buy gas
And you can't pay rent
And what you've got left
Is the Government'sNo win, no future, no benefit
It's the end of the world
Grab your crucifixAnd fall to your knees
And beg, "God, please
Have mercy on me"Coming out of the hypocrisy
Coming out of the bureaucracy
Coming in to lead a war
They're a shameYou can ignore what you cannot see
You can believe in a lie
You can run away from anything
Until you open your eyesNo rest for the wicked
Yeah, they never quit
Watching, waiting
For the next trickWe won't be celebrating
When the atom's split
It's the end of the world
Grab your crucifixAnd fall to your knees
And beg, "God, please
Have mercy on me"Coming out of the hypocrisy
Coming out of the bureaucracy
Coming in to lead a war
They're a shameYou can ignore what you cannot see
You can believe in a lie
You can run away from anything
Until you open your eyesComing out of the hypocrisy
Coming out of the bureaucracy
Coming in to lead a war
They're a shame
