Doom
anomie(glitch-rock) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Reports are coming in now that an asteroid the size of Manhattan
Is on a collision course with earth
Scientists say there is nothing they can do to prevent the asteroid from striking
May god help us all

Impending Doom
Impending Doom
Time is running out
The Doomsday clock is counting down
We need a superhero now
But our only hero is a clown
The sky is turning red
Not much longer until we're dead
Why can't you get it through your head
There is no hope for Kanye West

Who's gonna save you
What are you waiting for
Get to the bunker
Hide behind the pantry door
Survival of the fittest
Don't forget the Gatorade
Abandon all your children
The world is gonna end today

Impending Doom
Impending Doom

The asteroid is coming
I hope Rhianna makes it out
But her survival is a doubt
At least we're gonna lose Chris Brown

Who's gonna save you
What are you waiting for
Get to the bunker
Hide behind the pantry door
Survival of the fittest
Don't forget the Gatorade
Abandon all your children
The world is gonna end today

Impending Doom
Impending Doom

In these times of uncertainty it seems that our only salvation
Just may be Rock Johnson
But where Rock Johnson is, nobody seems to know
Wait, we're getting a tip now
It appears that Rock Johnson is at a party





God Dammit

I think the Video shows perfectly what Anomie means, total fucking chaos. It's a shade that Iblis has gone, but Zinguluts do a really great job too.
