Ladies and Gentlemen pull out your hankies
Lou Gehrig was the Pride of the Yankees
Mothers and Daddies, wrap up your children
King Kong has fallen off the building today
The sky is falling the sky is falling
Wish I could hideaway safe in the mall
Something is constantly scheming and brewing
To make our lives a disaster movie
And all of the pundits and bandits and speakers
And gadgets and two hundred dollar sneakers
Will all be so useless in conjuring Jesus
In baseball and science and naming diseases away
Too many firemen and virgins in heaven
It's all been fucked up since Nine Eleven
What we're all fighting and what we're defending
One big long story with two different endings today
Now I am holding you here in my arms
Trying my best to shelter you from harm
When everything is so crazy and wrapped up in shiny
Problems so big and you're so tiny today
