tell me your story
but please make it brief
got the apocalypse blues, yeah?
well i’ll tell you what chief
why don’t you come a bit closer
i might have something to say
let’s drown our world in mimosas
this town is blowing away, it’s blowing down
this wasteland
is your wasteland
we’re gonna wage this war together
but who’s that
sliding madly down the lightning, son?
it’s the apocalypse clown
so tell me your story
and please make it loud
there is a mushroom cloud forming
now do your dance for the crowd
send out a call to the big shots
please take your turn on the wheel
come chew your way right through the knots
then see what’s left for to steal steal steal, come on
this wasteland
is your wasteland
we’re gonna wage this war together
but who’s that spraying laughter
up the flagpole, son?
the apocalypse clown
there’s no time for your stories
come fill your meager canteen
i care not for former glories
let’s seal this kiss with a scream
you’d best not get too much closer
cause who knows what you might catch
the nights are getting much colder and longer
that’s why i’m sealing the hatch
this wasteland
is your wasteland
we’re gonna wage this war together
but who’s that sliding madly
down the lightning, son?
