So scared

Nostradamus predicted a bomb would drop

And life as we know it on Earth would abruptly stop
But from the pile of debris

So take your millions

Your perseverance
And shut 'em up, 'cause we don't give a damn
Scream all you want, dear
Try to get an audience
We've got our balls on
We don't give a damn
 
I didn't say please
They could not pry me
I wanna be a star but not in someone's orbit


I'm a rock and roll cockroach

Searching for something he can eat
The people freak out when he walks out there
So scared

A creature is struggling free
That's him looking for the Sunday Times


A rock and roll  cockroach

Searching for something he can eat

So scared

So take your millions

Your perseverance
From the debris of the shattered globe
And shut 'em up, 'cause we don't give a damn
A hand will rise to secure (?)
Scream all you want, dear
That's me looking for the Sunday Times

Searching for something he can eat
Searching for something I can eat
The people freak out when he walks out there
The people freak out when I walk out there
So scared
