lyrics

Die bad, go rotten
All of your sins will still be forgotten
I can guarantee you there’s no one keeping score.

Die good, decompose
Sorry, that’s just the way that it goes
All that trouble you went to, what was it for?

The end is the end,
When there’s no time to mend
The damage that you’ve done
I tell you, my friend
We’re all going to end up
As atoms in the sun’s supernova

Die rich, go up in flames
Your children live on with double-barrelled names
But it’s still eight hundred degrees behind the door

Die poor and neglected
You’ll be reduced to ashes collected
And thrown away one day, that’s for sure

The end is the end…

Whether we take our holy communion
With EFTA, NAFTA or the European Union
One day we won’t be an island any more

Atlantis rises, Europe sinks
The North Sea turns into a skating rink
If we’re up a mountain or down on the sea floor

The end’s still the end,
There’s no time to mend
The damage that we’ve done
I tell you, my friend
We’re all going to end up
As atoms in the sun’s supernova
