the legendary pink dots - before the end lyrics
before the end, the town was calm. no cold panic, no alarm. the pubs rang out with “auld lang syne” as a politician tossed a coin. it was normal. before the end, the children played while old men watched them from the shade. bemoaned the heat, the price of tea, discussed perverse psychology. normal… a-ok. before the end, in a darkened room, tom waited for his best girl june. fingers crossed, he quietly prayed. “lie down,” he whispered; she obeyed. it was normal. ring a ring of roses, a pocket full of posies. a tissue, a tissue, all fall down. ‘cos we’re normal. before the end, in a crowded store, miss demeanor broke the law. shifty eyes, sleight of hand, slipped up a sleeve a sardine can. naughty (tsk tsk) but normal. before the end, in a cramped bedsit, george slid a razor cross his wrist. bl–dy jeans, tearful eyes, unhooked the phone, fed the mice. nasty. before the end, in a cushioned pod, mr. dial-a-prophet looked for god. flaming throne to slice the sky for mankind’s last united cry. “we’re normal! can’t happen to us! we’re normal!” (it can’t happen to us!)
