lyrics

If the world's gone crazy, I've lost my mind too
Through all the horror and death, all I think about is you
And I could get through the blast and the radiation as well
If I could taste your lips before we're all sent to hell

(Chorus)
I need to love you 'fore the bomb drops
Need to love you 'fore the end
Need to love you 'fore the bomb drops
Wanna hold your hand as you cry to me
About that great white light

Well, love you know it scares me
Time is running out
We're so close to the edge
There's nothing left to think about
And I hope when it drops, the mushroom's not too bright
I wanna keep my eyes open when I'm holding you tight

Chorus

And if you didn't love me
In 2008
Well, that would be just fine
But the DEFCON is rising
Babe we just don't have the time

Chorus

Kinkajou
by Hapopy

It'll melt your brain. I don't know if that's a good or a bad thing. It's extremely abrasive and undeniably strange. So strange it's kind of a difficult listen, albeit it inexplicably addictive. The Snake Armed Man
