The World Is Going Under

The world is going under,
Down, down, down, faster than ever,
Round and round the drain,
Dizzying and mind numbing the sane;
Give up hope, it is but a lie,
Notice not a single protest cry?
No one notices, just drink the empty cup;
What is up is down, down is up,
Topsy turvy is the way to go,
A roller coaster never slow,
Politicians whisper in the ear,
Would have you think the end is never near.
The charge is on one and all,
Best to surrender to the fall,
The world is going under.
