The Very Last Night of the End of the World |
| big news burst over frequencies |
| Saying 'Peril! |
| C’est Tout! |
| C’est le fin' |
| Talking heads assessed best outcomes |
| in the end, all agreed things would end bad |
| She said 'I'm sick of your cleverness' |
| Spat, fence-sitter! |
| But i’d lost the thread |
| She said 'I'm leaving you tonight, I mean it, |
| I’m leaving with Quebec.' |
| I’m leaving california |
| detroit, halifax |
| i’m leaving all of you |
| so you can’t leave me back |
| (on what we later learned was) |
| The Very Last Night of The End of The World |
| If this is all you get, how will it be spent? |
| Ashamed? |
| or Alone? |
| Angry? |
| Drunk? |
| Shouting blame, or maybe |
| (or better spent) |
| Fearless, Joyous, Kissing, |
| Laughing, Dancing, |
| Holding onto hope as long as hope can be held onto. |
| it’s your last little lie, your last cigarette |
| your last sip of alcohol, a love song’s pirouette |
| the You the song gets sung to |
| with imploring convincing hands |
| Singing 'Blue skies would be bluer if you’d just give this love a chance' |
| After leaving Quebec |
| She abandoned Berlin |
| Got out of Chicago when the air got thin |
| Fleeing Paris |
| Burning Sicily |
| The Lakes drank up Toronto |
| The Vampires drank Calgary. |
| REPEAT CHORUS x2 |
