Waiting for the World to End - The Mavericks

You’re overstating, pontificating

The meaning of your life, my friend

I tell you one thing, but not for nothing

We’re all waiting for the world to end

And you may enter the gates of heaven

While some are dying to be born again

It’s intuition, not superstition

We’re all waiting for the world to end

Do you believe in things unseen

Or are you one of those that just pretends

Are you aware, let me be clear

We’re all waiting for the world to end

So if you must hang on to love

It’s only disbelief you must suspend

Oh, by the way, it’s way too late

We’re all waiting for the world to end

And blind ambition, like double vision

Will never show you what’s around the bend

I’m double-guessing why you’re obsessing

When we’re all waiting for the world to end

So in conclusion here’s the solution

Just live your life until you die, my friend

Have no regrets and don’t forget

We’re all waiting for the world to end
