Selfies in the Sunset

[Verse 1]

World champions of despair

You may wonder why I care

Apocalyptic mushroom clouds

Tower above us, I think aloud

[Chorus]

No silver linings, this is the end

Get your phone out to document

Selfies in the sunset

Won't get you many likes

Look into the mirror

Until the moment's right

For selfies in the sunset

The night's about to fall

So wake me in the morning

At the beginning of alien dawn

[Verse 2]

Mel Gibson howls with rage

The worst Hamlet of his age

Thirty-four in the Hollywood Hills

One dimensional low of thrills

[Chorus]

It's the last film that we'll ever see

Armageddon wants company

Selfies in the sunset

Won't get you many likes

Stare into the mirror

Until the moment's right

Selfies in the sunset

The backdrop's blazing red

And everyone is equal in the valley of the dead

[Interlude]

[Chorus]

Count to three and pout your lips

Hit the flash with your fingertips

Selfies in the sunset

Won't get us through the day

Wake me in the morning

When everything's astray

For selfies in the sunset

The night's about to fall

So wake me in the morning

At the beginning of alien dawn
