Barenaked Ladies
New Disaster
(Oh-oh-oh-oh, wah-oh-oh, wah-oh-oh)

Hands are shackled, feet are bound
Sinking in the icy waters
Seems inevitable our protagonist will drown
There's no rescue, no way off this ride
If all the world's a stage
We're burning down the theater with everyone inside

It's in the presentation, it's prestidigitation
It's kick the can, sleight of hand
Fear and outrage on demand

Here comes a new disaster
Here comes the end of days
Next up the sweet hereafter
We'll tell you all about it after this commercial break
Stay tuned for scary monsters
Watch out for rising tides
But first a word from sponsors
Might be a mess but it's a hell of a good time

The river's dried up, the banks are broke
Our leaders lied to us
But if we pay attention we can get in on the joke
'Cause there's still laughter, there's still hope
We gotta pay the hangman
But that don't mean we gotta give him all this rope
The devil's in the details
They're killing it at retail
So cross-promote, now cast your vote
There's plenty of room on the lifeboat

Here comes a new disaster
Here comes the end of days
Next up the sweet hereafter
We'll tell you all about it after this commercial break
Stay tuned for scary monsters
Watch out for rising tides
But first a word from sponsors
Might be a mess but it's a hell of a good time

(Oh-oh-oh-oh, wah-oh-oh, wah-oh-oh)

Midnight ticking down
Time to turn the ship around
Everybody feeding your anti-social media
Fear fear, disappear
We don't need you back in here
Save the forest, save the whales
Throw the CEO in jail

Come together, come what may
Live to fight another day
Don't, don't, don't believe the hype
This is no way to live your life
(Oh-oh-oh-oh, wah-oh-oh, wah-oh-oh)

Here comes a new disaster
Here comes the end of days
Next up the sweet hereafter
We'll tell you all about it after this commercial break
Stay tuned for scary monsters
Watch out for rising tides
But first a word from sponsors
Might be a mess, might be a mess
Might be a mess but it's a hell of a good time

(Oh-oh-oh-oh, wah-oh-oh, wah-oh-oh)
Here comes a new disaster
(Oh-oh-oh-oh, wah-oh-oh, wah-oh-oh)
