A couple of people a lot smarter than me
Say an asteroid could come down with no prior warning
Wipe out all existence with very little time to speak
As a kid it used to freak me out, but you know I think
All in all it's been alright
We've had a couple of good times
Fought a pretty good fight

Or like a thief in the night
Some might stop to kneel and worship
Some might say the Mayans were right
Some will still exploit it

As their castles of sand vanish
Into the rising tide
All in all it's been alright
We've had a couple of good times
Fought a pretty good fight
And before last call
Won't you see me tonight
It's alright if you have too many
We can laugh and dance and cry
As the fireball above us
Stretches out across the sky
As the fireball above us
Spells out our demise
In that final hour
Let's all shout and hoot and holler
Whistle our favorite little theme song
In our ripped hand-me-down long johns
And we'll sip the cool clear water
As the air gets hotter and hotter
And the waves tower so high
And the fire swallows the sky

Sure has been real good to know ya
Sure has been a really good life
Sure has been
