Lyrics

[Verse 1] Cover your skin and cover your eyes / before you go and step outside And boil the water, / sterilize your hands There's people places low and high / could blow the cities to the sky It seems as though we're hopelessly fucked But in the meantime just relax Go back to work and pay your taxes Go back home and stay inside And watch some sitcoms… before you die [Verse 2] Go and buy yourself some clothes And try to not focus on those / dead animals that line the street Babies born with giant heads And infants dying in their beds And air that's slightly hard to breath Just do what all the others do If they don't panic why should you? Just go back home and stay inside And watch some sitcoms… before you die [Refrain] The extinction of the human race The extinction of the human race This is how the world is run And there's nothing to be done [Post-refrain] Oh well, I know that it can be very frightening And I know that it can be very sad But the world is how it is / and you're just a bunch of fucking stupid kids [Verse 3] Mosquitoes with West Nile disease, E. coli meat STDs and cancer coming from the sun Droughts and floods and burning lands A market no one understands And angry monkeys sitting at the helm But God is watching you and me So choose your battles; Have some tea Go back home and stay inside And watch some sitcoms… before you die [Refrain] The extinction of the human race The extinction of the human race This is how the world is run And there's nothing to be done But sit back and wait for the extinction Sit back and wait for the extinction Oh yeah, sit back and wait for the extinction Sit back and wait for the extinction
