TIME FOR UNTIMELY...



            What happened?
            We cry
            How can an asteroid fry
            Its way through the Earth's 
            Atmosphere?
            Did a butterfly fart
            In the Amazon jungle?
            And will we lose all the things 
            We hold dear?
            

The fat cat's heart Is about to explode Children are wailing In fear While on the evening news We are all being told That the end of the world Is here

A rich bitch is kissing a wino On a bench, in Cenral Park The priest will not hear confession Atheists are rebuilding the Ark Soldiers stand on the field Refusing their killing profession Meantime, the rules of society yield To the basics of human condition

Scientists say it's a fact That life in this planet is over Time for untimely extinction Looms near The cockroaches are throwing us A farewell party At least, that's what I hear And why not? Their time has come at last To rule on this sphere
