Receiving and giving
Going on in their normal way
Yelling and screaming
Or smiling and gleaming
Not unlike any other day
There was a traffic jam
Exactly one day before the end of the world
Adeath in Bethlehem
Exactly one day before the end of the world
No one saw it coming
I saw no one running
Exactly one day before the end of the world
A baby was born
I'm sure clothes were worn
covering up some mistake
Pressure was put on
She put her prosthetic foot on
Moved leaves around with a rake
A man was waking up
Exactly one day before the end of the world
A couple was making up
Exactly one day before the end of the world
No one saw it coming
I saw no one running
Exactly one day before the end of the world
