lyrics

I heard you made a big decision
Decided to follow that 2020 vision
You're going to start your own religion
And turn your bedroom into a mission
Well you know that everything it comes and goes
And I'm just watching that river flow
Oh do you remember when you wanted to grow old?
But now you don't want the responsibility anymore

And here we are watching the world burn again
And here we are watching the world burn, my friend
And here we are watching the world burn again, again, again
And here we are wondering is this really the end

So I thought I'd get my kicks in before the apocalypse
For you know whether or not we like it, we're all going down with this ship
Now I don't care about anything, I was already dying to live
But if you wanna leave this planet, why don't you beam me up to the mothership?
And the aliens they couldn't arrive soon enough
To make us all realize how much we've been messing up
Well we can take you to our leader but it'd be a waste of time
Because we all know he's only got one thing on the mind

And here we are watching the world burn again
And here we are watching the world burn, my friend
And here we are watching the world burn again, again, again
And here we are wondering is this really the end

Oh beam me up now baby oh baby won't you beam me up?
Oh beam me up now baby oh baby won't you beam me up?
You see I wanna go to space and have a little fun
so beam me up now baby oh baby won't you beam me up?

Oh beam me up now baby oh baby won't you beam me up?
Oh beam me up now baby oh baby won't you beam me up?
You see I, I wanna go to space and I wanna make love
So beam me up now baby oh baby won't you beam me up?
To the mothership

And here we are watching the world burn again
And here we are watching the world burn, my friend
And here we are watching the world burn again, again, again
And here we are wondering is this really the end
And here we are watching the world burn again
And here we are watching the world burn, my friend
And here we are watching the world burn again, again, again
And here we are wondering is this really the end
