Terrorists in the closet
Ebola under the bed
Seems wherever I turn
Somethin's 'bout knock me dead
The world's pretty spooky
Lotsa shit is a-goin' down
And the ones who run the thing
Are the loudest ones around
I sing, I sing
Sing la-la-la-la
Sing la-dee-day
Monkeys makin' moolah
All over this here land
Even the smart guys
Well they ain't so smart
Yeah, the don't understand
People sending texts
While the world goes up in flames
And who, who is responsible
Well you won't even know their names
I sing, I sing
While the world is going to hell
In a tourist cruise
Only celebrities
Make front-page news
While the world is going to hell
In a reality show
The rest of us wait around
For Godot to show
And all through it all
I just want to sing
I just want to sing
