The existential threat that I always feel
Nothing's happened yet today and yet I have to feel
Danger near, danger here!
Nowhere to escape to and nobody there to hear as I now
Scream in fear, scream in fear!
The existential threat is drawing very, very near and they all
Look away, look away!
Can't they see the existential threat is on its way?
The existential threat that I tend to feel
When I'm walking down the street or right behind the wheel
Turning left, turning right!
Trying to escape the cloud that's close enough to feel and you may
Laugh out loud, laugh out loud!
The existential threat is always hanging about and you may
Say go way, say go way!
The existential threat is never going away
Doctor gave me these, I said what are these?
He said that they'll cure an existential type disease
Doubt they will, doubt they will!
But I'm keen to try whatever, gimme that pill and he said
Here's the bill, here's the bill!
In the end they didn't work, I paid the whole bill because
Insurance won't, they just won't!
Cover existential meds, I wish I had known
How should I react under this attack?
Even when I'm standing up I feel I'm on my back
Quagmire here, quagmire there!
I cannot elucidate the danger that is always there but it is
Looming large, extra large!
My semi-automatic weapon ready to discharge but it's a
Futile act, better pack!
The existential threat is bulletproof and looming large
Sartre and Camus seemed to understand
Something close to what I'm feeling though they were in France
Deux Magots they would go!
Each comparing existential threats they came to blows and then
The crowds came near just to cheer!
For the greatest existential threatened philosophe and it is
Comforting, comforting!
Then the comfort starts to very quickly fade away
Did I wake you up? Sorry if I did
Guess I woke you up and also woke your little kid
Threat outside, let me hide!
Just until the danger passes, then I'll go outside and have to
Come again, once again!
The existential threat is at your patio door and do not
Let it in, let it in!
When you fight the existential threat you will not win
The existential threat that I always feel
Lots of things have happened and I seek an even keel
Danger near, danger far!
Nowhere to escape to and I'm racing in my car as I now
Scream in fear, scream in fear!
The existential threat is drawing very, very near as I now
Drive away, by the way!
Can't you see the existential threat is on its way?
