December 21, 2012. The end date of the Mayan calendar. End of humanity. Collapse of civilization overnight. Naturally I went and partied with some friends, and by night's end had puked all over Ryan's coffee table and TV remote. When I woke up, the topless women were gone. Unfortunately it was business as usual the next day. Those lying Mayan bastards!
This is a terrible song and was recorded terribly. I played a 100-year-old out of tune piano, and sang at the same time. I probably should have recorded them separately, and used guitar instead.
lyrics
HERE COMES 2012
Take that bible off the shelf
Here comes 2012, here comes 2012, here comes 2012
Take that bible off the shelf
Here comes 2012
2012, 2012, 2012...
There's nothin' more to say
Get on your knees and pray
On your knees and pray, on your knees and pray
There's nothing more to say
Get on your knees and pray. Pray, pray, pray...
Repent or you will go
To desolation row, desolation row, desolation row
Repent or you will go
To desolation row
Repent or go down below
There's no postcard to send from the end
No postcard to send from the end
There's no postcard to send from the end
It's the end, my friend, the end.
Take that bible off the shelf
Here comes 2012
Here comes 2012, Here comes 2012
Take that bible off the shelf
Here comes 2012, 2012, 2012, 2012..
