Cold War Kids - Minimum Day lyrics

Remember when I saw a Movie bout the rapture Strange seventies, zombie movie eschatology One day the nonbelievers Woke to alarm clocks Empty houses barking dogs Half the human race was gone Oh! the minimum day The minimum day took them away I left feeling terrified Ripped me a new behind What happens to the people On a plane if the pilot might Spontaneously disappear When it goes down for real The motherless babies And the quixotic teenagers cry Once upon a time Even tom needed proof And peter would sell you out Deep down judas was a sweet kid James had the nerve to ask you for a vip I look around and say On my hands no i can't hide em On my knees Might as well just lay down and die Oh! the minimum day The minimum day Take me away Now i'm all grown up I see the scare tactic To get the kids to obey The grand inquisitor say A gun to the back make a Happy man march But neil young hit the mark with Only love can break your heart
