Share The End lyrics

Here come the priests, each one wailing and bemoaning

"Lordy, they got their heads bowed down"

Here come the madmen, they're too excited for atoning:

"Burn the mosque", they're shouting, "Burn it down!"

Save me a place, surrounded with friendly faces

All of us have gathered here to share the end

To watch the world go up in flames

(Please, Lord we're not ready

Give us a day

Give us an hour)

Here come the kings, let's dispense with their apologizing

Just bring on the acrobats and clowns

Here comes the rumble, hang on for universal dying

Please ignore the baying of the hounds

Save me a place, surrounded with friendly faces

All of us have gathered here to share the end

To watch the world go up in flames

(Please, Lord we're not ready

Give us some time to work things out

Please, Lord we're not ready

Give us a day

Give us an hour

Please, Lord we're not ready

Give us some time to work things out

Please, Lord we're not ready

Give us a day

Give us an hour...)
