[Verse 1] I threw a rock in the lake and it sank to the bottom The waves spread out but the rock got forgotten The ripples came back just as we feared Looking for the rock but the hole disappeared It's somewhere in the middle some way down The last guy that went looking almost certainly drowned [Chorus] He ran out of time He can kiss tomorrow goodbye [Verse 2] Yes I piss in the water and burn down trees I watch as the creatures fall to their knees They haven't got a clue as disaster looms
They're too busy choking on toxic fumes They got no hope and there's no point running No matter what they do I keep on coming [Chorus] [Bridge] I did a bad thing I did a bad thing I did a bad thing I did a bad thing [Chorus] Well hallelujah and holy mackerel All we got left is a thief and a jackal The writing is big and it's there on the wall Oh how the mighty empires fall There's nothing to fix it's much too late Sit down and prepare to meet your fate [Chorus]
