IT’S THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT (AND I FEEL FINE)

WRITTEN BY: BILL BERRY, PETER BUCK, MIKE MILLS, & MICHAEL STIPE

NOTE: THE RESCUES’ VERSION VARIES FROM REM’S ORIGINAL 

IT’S THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT
IT’S THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT
IT’S THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT
AND I FEEL FINE

IT’S TIME I HAD SOME TIME ALONE (IT’S THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT)
IT’S TIME I HAD SOME TIME ALONE (IT’S THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT)
IT’S TIME I HAD SOME TIME ALONE (IT’S THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT)
AND I FEEL FINE

THAT’S GREAT
IT STARTS WITH AN EARTHQUAKE, BIRDS AND SNAKES
AND AIRPLANES
BUT OH I AM NOT AFRAID

WORLD SERVES ITS OWN NEEDS, LISTEN TO YOUR HEART BLEED
TELL ME WITH THE RAPTURE AND THE REVERENT IN THE RIGHT, RIGHT
YOU VITRIOLIC, PATRIOTIC, SLAM FIGHT, BRIGHT LIGHT
FEELING PRETTY PSYCHED

IT’S THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT (IT’S TIME I HAD SOME TIME ALONE)
IT’S THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT (IT’S TIME I HAD SOME TIME ALONE)
IT’S THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT (IT’S TIME I HAD SOME TIME ALONE)
AND I FEEL FINE

IT’S TIME I HAD SOME TIME ALONE
IT’S TIME I HAD SOME TIME ALONE
IT’S TIME I HAD SOME TIME ALONE
IT’S TIME I HAD SOME TIME ALONE

IT’S THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT
IT’S THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT
IT’S THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT
AND I FEEL FINE
