We all know it's coming, but we don't know when . . .

lyrics

Armageddon Blues © 2020 John Croizat

Sister bought grapefruit, Brother got a gun
We’re all getting ready for kingdom come
I’m surfing Facebook, looking for the news
Everybody’s singing the Armageddon Blues

I guess it’s true, the world’s going to end
We all know it’s coming but we don’t know when
So keep the music going, ‘til we blow a fuse
Everybody sing the Armageddon Blues

Armageddon Blues, yo-de-lee-de-lay-hee
Armageddon Blues, yo-de-lee-de-lo-hoo
Does anybody here know what to do?
All I know is the Armageddon Blues

Pick up your cards, let’s play a game
The one we all call “Find someone to blame”
I know it wasn’t me, so it must have been you
Who started singing the Armageddon Blues

Too bad for the penguins, too bad for our kids
A lot of things we should have done, instead of what we did
Now there’s no money left to pay the dues
Everybody sing the Armageddon Blues

Armageddon Blues, yo-de-lee-de-lay-hee
Armageddon Blues, yo-de-lee-de-lo-hoo
Doesn’t anybody here know what to do?
All I know is the Armageddon Blues

It’s easy to be cynical, easy to despair
It’s easy to sit here in my easy chair
I’ve got myself a sandwich, and a nice cold brew
Got myself a song called the Armageddon Blues

One for the money, two for the show
On your mark, get set, hey - there’s nowhere to go
We’re running in a race, looks like we’re gonna lose
Everybody sing the Armageddon Blues

Armageddon Blues, yo-de-lee-de-lay-hee
Armageddon Blues, yo-de-lee-de-lo-hoo
Doesn’t anybody here know what to do?
All I know is the Armageddon Blues

Maybe I’m right, maybe I’m wrong
I’m just a singer, singing a song
I want you all to know I haven’t got a clue
All I’ve got is the Armageddon Blues

Armageddon Blues, yo-de-lee-de-lay-hee
Armageddon Blues, yo-de-lee-de-lo-hoo
Does anybody here know what to do?
All I know is the Armageddon Blues
