THE END

This is the end, beautiful friend.

This is the end, my only friend, the end

of our elaborate plans, the end

of everything that stands, the end,

no safety or surprise, the end.

I'll never look into your eyes again.

Can you picture what we'Il be,

so limitless and free,

desperately in need of some stranger's hand,

in a desperate land ?

Lost in a Roman wilderness of pain,

and all the children are insane,

all the children are insane,

waiting for the summer rain.

There's danger on the edge of town,

ride the king's highway.

Weird scenes inside the gold mine;

ride the highway west, baby.

Ride the snake, ride the snake

to the lake, the ancient lake.

The snake is long, seven miles;

ride the snake, he's old

and his skin is cold

The West is the best, the West is the best,

get here and well do the rest.

the blue bus is calling us,

the blue bus is calling us.

Driver, where you takin' us ?

The killer awoke before dawn,

he put his boots on,

he took a face from the ancient gallery,

and he walked on down the hall.

He went to the room where his sister lived,

and then he paid a visit to his brother,

and then he walked on down the hall.

And he came to a door,

and he looked inside,

" Father ? "

" Yes, son ? "

" I want to kill you.

Mother, I want to..."

Come on, baby, take a chance with us,

come on, baby, take a chance with us,

come on, baby, take a chance with us,

and meet me at the back of the blue bus...

This is the end, beautiful friend.

This is the end, my only friend, the end.

It hurts to set you free but you'Il

never follow me.

The end of laughter and soft lies,

the end of nights we tried to die,

this is the end.
