You made your bed, you lie it, that's what we told
But if the end of the world is coming this weekend, there's no getting old
Throw caution to the wind, be brave,
there's no time now to be saved
It's too late to repent,
don't bother with the rent
There's threesomes to arrange,
last minute I'll start a bar fight, over short change
There's rules you see, and laws we told we must obey
But if the end of the world is coming sometime today,
I'm not gonna behave
Throw caution to the wind, be brave,
there's no time now to be saved
It's too late to repent,
don't bother with the rent
There's mescaline to drink
Last minute I think I'll fly to New York, skate on Central Park's rink
Hey hey hey hey, hey hey hey hey
Looks like we gonna die tomorrow anyway
Hey hey hey hey, hey hey hey hey
Tonight I think I'm gonna throw my name
Beware, the fun-police will come,
to lock up everyone,
'til there's nowhere left to run,
and no saviour has come...
Throw caution to the wind, be brave,
there's no time now to be saved
It's too late to repent,
don't bother with the rent
There's so much left to do,
last minute I think I'll be like Desmond & The Tutus,
and get a tattoooooo.....

As an Ani fan...well, this is right in my wheel house...
New one for me, so it's the delightful eight outta the gate....

Did Shotgun Tori set out to write the worst song ever ironically, or did she accomplish this feat by accident?

The rhyming scheme is simplistic and the lyrics are juvenile.

But yeah, I thought it was Ani at first. Which is fine with me.

That's 'Ani Di Dranco' according to the notes - taken from her website.But yeah, I thought it was Ani at first. Which is fine with me.

Incredibly poignant for the upcoming weekend, the the week following. 1/13/21.
Thanks Bill!
Thanks Bill!

Happened again. Missed Bill's intro and was expecting, and actually looking forward to, a female "Play Me" cover. Like this song much better the second time though, 6->8.
I was expecting a Neil Diamond cover with that guitar melody.
she was morning and i was night time...

Such a pretty little song covering lyrics that are grim or outrageously funny depending on your point of view. I vote 8 on first listen.

This song squeezes my gizzards... beautiful...
she sounds a little like Billie Holiday...
I'm trying to figure out where she has the capo on the acoustic...
darn...waited too long. Still hate it though!
Yey, I'm the first comment! Here is it.......
Nice song, once the tempo picks up...
This is just not working for me.
Until the end of world doesn't happen "this weekend" and you're stuck with a late fee for non-payment of your rent.
