Electric Six
Doom and Gloom and Doom and Gloom
Our hearts will love you, our lips will kiss you
Our teeth will tear your flesh apart
The will of death and destruction is on display
Like a precious work of art
I said, "It's such a coup, it's nothing new, it's nothing we haven't seen
It's just a big to-do to punish you for being so unclean."
Our operators are standing by
To provide you with excellent service
The mother-tongue makes you you want to die
And also understandably nervous
I spoke with Gerald Ford on the Ouija board and he said the whole thing stinks
He said, "It's such a bore, it's nothing more than playing Tiddly-Winks."
So
Doom and gloom and doom and gloom
Hounds of hell are howling at the moon
And we're visiting Joe Biden's tomb
And the eternal scent of time will run the course
Just like a headless horse without a horse
And I don't care what any of this means
When I hit the iceberg, the iceberg sinks
I don't need your gravity
So, go ahead and slap your big X on me

Our corporate masters made profits
From the re-usable nightmare
The action news correspondent displays his marvelous shiny hair
He said it's getting a little bit stuffy in here now don't you think
But never fear, the weekend's here, you can dive into your drink for more
Doom and doom and doom and gloom
Judgment day is truly coming soon
All the boys and girls stay in their room
Even though their story is about you
This story surely will be told without you
And the scent of time will run the course
Just like a headless horse without a horse
