Lyrics

Call it a premonition, call it what you want
But for one full year prior to the outbreak
Every single morning I'd wake up
With a looming sense of doom
Descending upon me
With a great & choking force!
And strangely- each morning after that
Rat-a-tat tat
My waking up was met with a comforting calm
And peaceful understanding
The times they're looking bad
Yeah, things are looking weird
Every morning when I step outside
Joe's standing right there
Yes, he greets me every morning
With a brand new catchy phrase
Like, "It's crime time baby!"
No way Joe, I says!
First of all, keep your voice down, they're listening!
And secondly, there's cameras everywhere!
Things will turn around, you know the world ain't fair, it never was
Will it be anytime soon? Probably not!
Still, you and I, we got a lot
I don't know about you
But I'm feeling lonely, scared, bored and horny!
It's an odd combination, but it's a document of sorts!
Well, apparently, a swarm of nogoodniks
Are roaming the downtown streets and causing strife
What do you expect?
A good percentage of the world's workforce are stuck at home right now
And if idle hands are truly the devil's playground
Well, you know, chaos looms at it stands
So just take a breath and watch from afar
It's out of our hands!
Yes, the times are looking bad
The news is all pervasive, and
The mood is tense and the air is so thick
That you could chop it with an axe!
Don't get any ideas, Joe
The rock n roll's already cranked to the max
And we don't need it any louder than it already is!
Yeah, I do what I can to lighten the despair at moments like this
And I rib Joe by spouting
"Hey, Joe. Isn't there some illegal weapons
That need to be purchased somewhere?"
And as the side of his mouth curls up
A pesky energy emerges and Joe does a little dance while he sings...
When the ship goes down, ya better be ready
When the ship goes down, ya better be ready
When the ship goes down, ya better be ready
When the ship goes down, ya better be ready
Okay, whatever, Joseph
Christ almighty, marvy Mohammed, and lovin' Lord Vishnu!
Well, at least Joe's smilin' while he's singing that crazy song!
EKH! It's creepy!
We're right there in the middle
A lot to lose, a lot to gain
No, it ain't crime time, baby
No, not yet anyway
But, I do know what you're saying
How things are looking grim
The game of life's also a game of chance
Sometimes we lose
Sometimes we win
And if things don't pick up, there's always plan B
Heroin and cyanide for you and me
But the good news for us all
Is that the rich want to stay rich
And if the poor and middle-class do die, the richy rich?
They can't survive!
It's an Epidemication
A health department violation
It's a hairy situation
I try to rise above swearing out in public
But fuck it, Don't you know
That it was a god who put all those words in my mouth?
Fuck it north & fuck it south!
MK ULTRA, Roger Smith and Charles Manson, check it out!
And if we weren't all skeezed out enough
Time seems to be standing still
That dead man in the street had a name
And his name was Dirty Phil!
Damn the lack, and damn the news!
But it seems the adults are misbehaving again
Their corruption is absolute! There's protests in the streets
And there's black birds, and yellow birds
And all sorts of birds singing in the dead of night
It's almost unbelievable
You're telling me that racism still exists?
Well, is it any wonder that the disenfranchised are pissed?
It's like my neighbours who hate me
Because they simply don't know me
The general lack of imagination must be spotlighted here!
I guess it's like that but times ten
Yet so much more than that
Over and over again!
Bing, bang, dickety, dang
Breathe, breath, breathe, breath, breath, breath, breath
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba breathhhhhhhhe
Peace and calm
Prayers to you all
I'm getting a bit tired now
A hot shower and some Netflix
An ice pack and a sip
And I'll be back counting sheep
And saying some prayers
And crying myself back to sleep
Although later on, yeah
It's later in the wee small hours
That I'll tend to my devastated crop of thoughts
That's wrought with the humble dreams
That I dare not to re-imagine
And that comforting calm and peaceful understanding I mentioned
Oh, seven minutes back there and around?
Well, perhaps we're in the eye of the hurricane
So, to plan is fruitless, to predict is inane
It's an Epidemication
A worn and weirded out staycation
