about

(in which those on Earth celebrate their last day)

lyrics

I saw Maria standing out in the street
She had a knife in her hand and the devil at her feet
She was a working lady
Got no time for a baby
Now it's much too late to a damn thing other than
Dance
Like the night wasn't burning and turning to day
Dance
To forget it'll all be swept away

At St. Michael's there ain't nowhere to stand
There's people sweatin' and prayin' "Jesus, give me your hand"
While Johnny takes their wallets,
Saying "While we've got it
It's a shame to waste our time asking why, hell, we might as well
Dance"
Squeezin' out every beat of our cheating hearts
Yeah, dance
Holding nothing inside as we fly apart

To the End Of It All Waltz
Spinnin' 'round to a dead-end one-way melody
The End Of It All Waltz
Hoping someone will carry on with the memory

I've got so much more to do
(why is this happening to me?)
Life to live before I'm through
(there's no way out that I can see)
I've got songs that I can sing
(if there were hope I could believe)
But there's nobody listening

The End Of It All Waltz
Spinnin' 'round to a dead-end one-way melody
The End Of It All Waltz
Hoping someone will carry on with the memory

Now me and Gina we got nowhere to go
We got us front-row tickets to see a hell of a show
Down on the 101
We're waiting for the sun
We said goodbye all night and now it's time to get up and
Dance
Letting all of our tears and our fears run dry
Yeah Dance
Turning under the rays of a blazing sky

To the End Of It All Waltz
Spinnin' 'round to a dead-end one-way melody
The End Of It All Waltz
Hoping someone will carry on with the memory
The End Of It All Waltz
Trying not to remember the way it used to be
