The sun has a solar flare   The earth just tilted on its axis   The demon lies in his lair   And licks at the Goddess Abraxas      Volcanoes long, long dormant   Send up plumes of gas   An India and Pakistan   Start talking trash      In these dark days, dark      Let's walk to the nearest cliff   Let's walk to the river   But there's been a seismic shift   I felt the whole earth quiver      Let's hold the party we said we would   I'm always whole   And me with their blood on my hands   And you with their gold      In these dark, dark, dark days   In these dark days, um dark      Your conscience is worthless here   Go peddle it under the street lights   The hubris of love you carry   Is attracting a swarm of meat flies      Brandish, brandish your weapon, baby   Sharpen your sharpest knives   If you're not the king or the queen   You're just a working for the hive      In these dark, dark, dark days   In these dark, dark days      Dark, dark, dark   Dark, dark, dark days      Well, well, well   The sun has a solar flare   The earth just tilted on its axis   The demon lies in his lair
