lyrics

Apocalypse

lemon drops will cure your mood
they are laced you can trace the word
to my tongue and choose not to believe it
to my book and see that I stole it

take love and turn it which ever way you want
but I will look both ways before crossing the street
with parsley in my right hand like a wedding bouquet
i've always known that i would be ok. right.

I don't care about mispronouncing cheeses
or revealing my lack of background in wines
I will take you even if your feet aren't polished
I will take you for a walk on peacock island

there once was a zoo and there were kings
and all kinds of historical conversations
about who would marry Spain
and how the water would be divided -- divided

take love and turn it which ever way you want
but I will look both ways before crossing the street
with parsley in my right hand like a wedding bouquet
I've always known i that would be ok. right.

now I'm counting my pennies and my ponies
everything is plastic and everything is here to stay
nothing has slipped my mind the way it should
rain, we all know the earth is far to dry

and I will prefer planets to countries
I know soon there will be no where to hide
not even behind a kiss with the curtains drawn
and the lights out or a fade out and that's a fact -- and that's a fact

apocalypse is the word on my lips
