Lyrics
Armageddon
They say we're nearing Armageddon
But that's not where I'm headin'
Before we come to the end of the world
I've got loads to do, boys and girls
They say we're nearing Armageddon
Will I be labelled a pariah
If I don't welcome the Messiah
While some may acknowledge the Second Coming
There's another tune I'll be humming
Will I be labelled a pariah
Chorus
And if someone tells me to repent
I'll smile and tell them I pass
I'll pack up my stuff, roll up my tent
And find me anotther piece of grass
Vers
And when they mention the bottomless pit
Am I worried ? No, not a bit
While some may be thrown into the lakes of fire
I've got stuff to do before I expire
Am I worried ? No, not a bit.
Chorus
And if someone tells me to repent
I'll smile and tell them I pass
I'll pack up my stuff, roll up my tent
And find some other piece of grass
Verse
So excuse me if I'm not concerned
I've got things to do and people to see
If the beast is already on the prowl
Before I throw in my towel
Excuse me if I'm not concerned
Chorus
And if someone tells me to repent
I'll smile and tell them I pass
I'll pack up my stuff, roll up my tent
And find some other piece of grass
And if someone tells me to repent
I'll smile and tell them I pass
I'll pack up my stuff, roll up my tent
And find some other piece of grass
