Sure Is Fun
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Another day in outer space, do you feel out of place?
Well, that's good, yeah, you should
But anyway, things have changed
And it's clear to see you up to no good
But honestly, the gravity is killing me
And integrity is being overlooked
I'm in a bind, can we rewind?
Reality's unraveling, yes, this is happening
So wait one minute, can't say I didn't try
Been knock, knock, knocking on the door outside
Tell me what I gotta do
We've had enough of all these pointless points of view
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Just cash the checks, you'll never have to tell the truth
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Just keep bang, bang, banging on the big bass drum
While the aliens are coming and we're staring at the Sun
And the band plays on while the wild things run
It's the end of the world, but it sure is fun
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Take it down a notch, 'cause it's a lot
It's obvious that we don't make the rules
But check it out, the word of mouth
Is The joke's on you
So wait one minute, can't say I didn't try
Been knock, knock, knocking on the door outside
Tell me what you've got to lose
We've had enough of all these pointless points of view
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Just cash the checks, you'll never have to tell the truth
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Just keep bang, bang, banging on the big bass drum
While the aliens are coming and we're staring at the Sun
And the band plays on while the wild things run
It's the end of the world, but it sure is fun
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
It sure is fun
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
If you're not here to win, then why'd you play the game?
You just bitch and moan and constantly complain
We've had enough of all these pointless points of view
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Just cash the checks, you'll never have to tell the truth
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Just keep bang, bang, banging on the big bass drum
While the aliens are coming and we're staring at the Sun
And the band plays on while the wild things run
It's the end of the world, but it sure is fun
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
It sure is fun
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
It sure is fun
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
It sure is fun
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
It's the end of the world, but it sure is—
