Crazy World Is Here

If we’d known where to look we would have seen it coming.
It was out there in the distance growing closer all the time.
Relentlessly approaching, there is no use in running.
Eventually it catches up… It happens all the time.

	Crazy world is here! 
	Crazy world is here!
	Lift your glass to sanity, 
	It’s all but disappeared!
	Crazy world is here!

If we’d made a different turn, like right at Albuquerque,
Could it have been avoided? I guess we’ll never know.
There’s no use complaining we are just where we must be.
So, stand your ground, my brothers! There’s nowhere else to go!
 
	Crazy world is here! 
	Crazy world is here!
	Count out all the reasons 
	That we should fret and fear.
	Crazy world is here!
 
		Burn your map, it’s now outdated.
		All the lines are re-arranged.
		Ancient prophets claim it’s fated.
		Everything was going to change…
		Everything was going to change…

If you’ve not made preparations I don’t know what to tell you.
There isn’t much that you can do. The cupboards are all bare.
Just a matter of survival, now. Got to do what you must do.
Because the walls are crumbling and you can’t just stand there scared.

	Crazy world is here! 
	Crazy world is here!
	Raise your voices, sound the horns 
	To the new frontier!
	Crazy world is here!
