When the Big One Comes

What will you do when the big one comes
Will you bunker down, or go on the run
Roll over in bed and go back to sleep
Or grab your bug out bag and jump in the jeep
You've got four wheel drive
There's a chance you will survive
Even if it's category five
Are you ready for the big one now

What will you do when the big one hits
Will you lose your mind or use your wits
Make it to the shelter just in time
Or crawl under the bed with a bottle of wine
You could be done for
Your body wash up onshore
If it turns out to be a category four
Are you ready for the big one now

What will you do when the big one lands
Will you spring into action or throw up your hands
Board up the windows and latch your doors
We did ours, you shoulda done yours
Don't you wish you trimmed that tree
What a mess your place will be
Cs' it's going to be a category three
Are you ready for the big one now

What will you do when the big one arrives
Keep calm and think straight or run for your lives
If you've got religion better say your prayers
Make your peace with your man upstairs
This could be the end of you
Even if it's category two
Don't you wish you knew what to do
Are you ready for the big one now

Now lets make sure we've got all our supplies
Here's a list from the internet survival guys

Emergency two-way radio, check
Portable shovels and mosquito net
Dehydrated veges and Iodine pills
GPS and a compass let's head for the hills
9 inch Buck knife, emergency flares
Duct tape and a multi-tool to make repairs
Triple-ply nanocarbon fiber rope
Underwater matches and a night vision scope
Cyanide pills for if we run out of hope
Fishing poles and rabbit snares
Pepper spray for strays and bears
Hardtack biscuits, rice and beans
We can forage for nuts and salad greens
Binoculars and topographical maps
Gold and silver coins 'cause the Fed will collapse
A tactical shotgun and a Glock on my belt
Now I know how Teddy Roosevelt felt
I'll think about the times when the neighbors all laughed
As we float away on our Tsunami raft
Me and my family will be found alive
Cause we were prepared, we will survive
What about you friends?
Are you ready for the big one now

What will yo do when the big one strikes
Launch the app for that, or try to get likes
If you get caught like Dorothy and Toto
You could go viral if you get the right photo
A selfie next to none
This could even be kind of fun
If it turns out to be a category one
Are you ready for the big one now
