Batten down the hatches, send out the dispatches.
The world is gonna end!
Get your kids from school, go swimming in the pool.
Cancel plans for the week-end.

Why not tell your boss, he won't be such a loss?
The world is gonna end!
Don't look so surprised, you should have realised.
There's no time to phone a friend.

Go for one last beer, the vogons will be here.
The world is gonna end!
Throw away the keys, you've no more need for these.
Soon be nothing to defend.

So finish off your book, it's time for one last look.
The world is gonna end!
Signs were all around, in sky, in sea, on ground.
But we failed to see the trend.

The world is gonna end!
The world is gonna end!
