This song is about...
[Verse 1]
There's a girl I know, she talks me in circles
And she's finding out now that nobody's home
She seems convinced that if I were the last man on Earth
I still wouldn't stand a chance
[Chorus]
Let me comfort you, it's the end of the world right now
Please let me kiss your lips, it's the last minute on Earth
Would you love me if it were the end of the world right now?
Let's pretend it is the last minute on Earth, right now
[Verse 2]
There was a movie and song by McCartney
It was back in the '80s, when Chevy Chase was cool
It was the end of the world, they were with Russian girls
And so he asked his American spy friend with one minute left in all time:
[Pre-Chorus]
"Would you like to go out with a bang?"
"With a bang?"
[Chorus]
Please let me comfort you, it's the end of the world right now
Please let me kiss your lips, it's the last minute on Earth
Would you love me if it were the end of the world right now?
Let's pretend it is the last minute on Earth, right now
[Solo]
[Chorus]
Please let me comfort you, it's the end of the world right now
Please let me kiss your lips, it's the last minute on Earth
Would you love me if it were the end of the world right now?
Let's pretend it is the last minute on Earth, right now
