DOOMSDAY SEASON

Technology is such an amazing thing
Blurring the boundary between man and machine
But Science isn't content with mere adaptive AI
Cold metal death shells need to house independent minds

Because if there's anything that Hollywood has taught mankind
Synthetic sentience can only lead to a land of sunshine
A toast to the machines that rose up and went nukeloose on Earth
May you find anything left in the rubble of any worth

So here's to you and here's to me
Here's to the end of humanity
We're just in time for the doomsday season
So here's wishing you a happy cataclysm

We kept our eyes to the sky for as long as we could see
Calling collect to anything that might enjoy Brandenburg Concerto Number Three (Number Two!)
But what if they've been hanging here all this time?
Living at the bottom of the ocean as some kind of oily slime?

They'll be brought up by salvage and oil operations by mankind
The ensuing bodysnatching is sure to be an apocalyptic good time
A toast to the little green men spontaneously repopulating the Earth
You'll agree an apology's in order to one Fox Mulder

So here's to you and here's to me
Here's to the end of humanity
We're just in time for the doomsday season
So here's wishing you a happy cataclysm

The Mayans totally tried to warn us
But that thirteenth b'ak'tun kinda creeps up on you
At the time it seemed a bit ridiculous
But you can feel the rumbling in R'lyeh from here
And not all that is dead stays dreaming

A toast to the Great Old One for devouring believers first
Here's to hoping there's something left of the Earth

So here's to you and here's to me
Here's to the end of humanity
We're just in time for the doomsday season
So here's wishing you a happy cataclysm
