Loud Hailer Man

I have breakfast, take to the streets, loud hailer in hand

Take it to strangers till they understand

I’ve been wrong before, yeah, but this feels new

I stand here mumbling to the blue

 

But no-one looks at me, yeah the idiots just plough on through

So I shout louder till it’s true

Yeah no-one looks at me, yeah the idiots just plough on through

So I shout louder till it’s true

 

I stand on the steps of the bombed-out church with the sun in my eyes

You people are in for one hell of a surprise

Yeah I know, I know, I know how this sounds

But these are stone cold facts and I’m loud hailer man

 

So throw on a sandwich board and point to the sky

My sky is always falling and my end is always nigh

But take a leaflet - this is different

Don’t just pass me by

 

“We’re on collision course with something that we don’t have a word for”

I move to Tescos - catch them by the exit door

“These are the complex end times my friends and there’s something going down

Time to wake up, or we’re all gonna drown”

 

I stand on the steps of the bombed-out church with the sun in my eyes

You people are in for one hell of a surprise

Yeah I know, I know, I know how this sounds

But these are stone cold facts and I’m loud hailer man

 

So throw on a sandwich board and point to the sky

My sky is always falling and my end is always nigh

 

But take a leaflet - this is different

Don’t just pass me by

Take a leaflet - it’ll save you

Please don’t just pass me by

Take a leaflet - this is different

Don’t just pass me by

 

Sun sets orange, pack my stall away

Yeah they’ll see tomorrow, prepare for apocalypse another day

Apocalypse another day
