Doomsayer

Seer of the future
You were cursed with second sight
Your premonition
The demise of humankind

You tried to warn them
But they took you for a fool
You preached your sermon
All they did was laugh at you

Doomsayer
When will they heed your words?
Doomsayer
When will they ever learn?
Doomsayer
I fear that it's too late
Oh yeah, too late to escape our fate

You read the scriptures
The writing on the wall
Omens and portents
Predicted we would fall

Mooncalves are birthing
And there's ergot in the rye
Doomsday clock's ticking
It's just a matter of time

Doomsayer
They just don't want to hear
Doomsayer
Your words fall upon deaf ears
Doomsayer
They don't wanna see the proof
Ooh yeah, they don't wanna know the truth

Oh, it's time to repent now
Get on your knees and pray
You'd better beg for mercy
For today is judgement day
Oh, the seal is broken
All hell is rushing forth
And at the head of the vanguard
Behold a pale horse
Lord save us!

Doomsayer
Your prophecy's taking place
Doomsayer
This world is an open grave
Doomsayer
There's no way to stop the spread
Ooh yeah, we're already good as dead
Good as dead!
