I was hanging around
To see what would happen
With a coin in the slot
And a ticket for the raffle
Didn't see a thing
A lone, lousy witness
To the world as it was ending
Bullet, butterfly, dragonfly landing
In a field near the desert
My head was pounding
I turned my eyes away
I would not be spending
With the world as it was ending
With the world as it was ending
You see a rush to judgement
I see history repeating
You see progress in peril
I see faith is deceiving
You see a modern hero
I see a widow weeping
With the world as it was ending
And I'll play my guitar
Till her baby is sleeping
With the world as it is ending
To see what would happen
With a coin in the slot
And a ticket for the raffle
Didn't see a thing
A lone, lousy witness
To the world as it was ending
Bullet, butterfly, dragonfly landing
In a field near the desert
My head was pounding
I turned my eyes away
I would not be spending
With the world as it was ending
With the world as it was ending
You see a rush to judgement
I see history repeating
You see progress in peril
I see faith is deceiving
You see a modern hero
I see a widow weeping
With the world as it was ending
And I'll play my guitar
Till her baby is sleeping
With the world as it is ending
