Oh joy, oh joy!
We have been given another year!
Time is such a precious thing
when the apocalypse is near.

But hey, it could be worse.
The fake news is no longer in print
and there’s still beauty through smog
all you have to do is quint!

Disregard pollution and pestilence
and enjoy the present tense.
We all have become infertile anyways,
so preservation? What's the sense?

I choose myself over a polar bear!
What have they ever done for me?
The hell with symbiotic relationships
We have enough biotics ones on TV.

We were all forced to be vegan,
But now the veggies are running low
But every fad is replaced by another,
So maybe we can start eating snow!

Oh, wait. No…
That melted a while ago.
But hey, the surfs insane,
So that a plus, ya know?

You don't?

Wait a minute…
Where’s your gun?
I’ve learned that if you not packing heat
then you’ve probably come undone.

God made man,
but these bad boys made us equal!
Don't you know this is the finale?
There’s not going to be a sequel.

But regardless,
see this golden cross around my neck?
I know there will be salvation,
I mean… Noah's ark didn't wreck!

Well?

Breakthroughs prolonged our nature,
but then mother nature broke through us.
If this is truly all God's plan,
fuck that “stranger on a bus”.
