Hey, hey J.C. ah
We need some drugs in here man
It's getting real, it's getting real weird here man
Got to turn down the lights
We need some serious drugs
I'm talking about we need some real serious drugs
Yeah! Okay!

Wake up you'll be dead soon enough
I see in a man's eyes the haunted ghost of love
Knowledge waits for those who stay tough
Hell fire is a heaven calling from above

On my last day on earth
I hope they take me outside
To be beneath the sun
To be beneath the stars
That's where I really want to die

On my last day on earth
Will I hover above this land
Will I look down
Will I finally understand
What will I think
What will be my last thought
Will I be at peace
Or will I be cursing God
Will I continue to fight
Will I no longer care
Will I be with my friends
Will there be nobody there

On my last day on earth
Will I be ready to leave
Will the angel of death
Come and set me free
Will I see any light
Will I hear any sound
Will I escape to the heavens
Or will I just be rat food underground
Will I feel cold
Will I feel heat
Will I see myself
On some old city street
Will I count down the seconds
Ten, nine, eight
Will I go to Purgatory
Or will they say it's all a big mistake
Will I think of Peggy Lee
Singing Is that all there is
Will I be back in my youth
Receiving my very first kiss
Will all my questions be answered
Will I finally know why
Will I even remember
Why I was ever alive

On my last day on earth
What will I see
I pray it's you my love
Smiling down at me

On my last day on earth
On my last day on earth
I want to be conscious
I want to see, hear, taste, feel
I want to ride that horse
I want to ride that horse
All the way down to the end
I want to look into the eyes
Of the angel of death
I want to know
On my last day on earth
On my last day on earth
On my last day on earth
