The World Won’t Stop
[Verse 1]
You've got to quit your little charade and join the freak parade
Now that your road has been paved from conception to your grave
Enormous things to do, others' practices to eschew
To be better than you is impossible to do
[Chorus]
But the world won't stop without you
No, the world won't stop without you
[Verse 2]
Your achievements are unsurpassed, you are a highly-ordered mass
But you can bet your ass your free energy will dissipate
[Pre-Chorus]
Two billion years thus far, now mister, here you are
An element in a sea of enthalpic organic compounds
[Chorus]
The world won't stop without you
The world won't stop without you
[Verse 3]
You're only as elegant as your actions let you be
A piece of chaos related phylogenetically
To every living organ system, we're siblings, don't you see?
The world rotates and will revolve without you constantly
[Pre-Chorus]
Two billion years thus far, now mister, here you are
An element in a sea of enthalpic organic compounds
[Refrain]
The world won't stop without you
No, the world won't stop without you
Said, the world won't stop without you (your grave)
