HOW CAN IT END?
(Peter Nardini)

Chorus:
There's a lot of folk sure that the world's goin' tae end
They're saying that's the way it must be
But really I don't want to hear that again
It's scaring the life oot o' me

How can it end, does nobody care
One push of the button, we're up in the air
Mothers and daughters and fathers and sons
Wi' their TVs and cookers, their fridges and phones
A' the young married couples, just startin' off
Oot for a bevvy, havin' a laugh

How can it end, we're a big super power
We've got Kentucky Fried Chicken and pork sweet and sour
Football on the telly and a few cans o' beer
Laughin' and swearin' and fallin' aff the chair
Horses and bingo, takin' a chance
Socials, discos, havin' a dance

How can it end when there's Marlboro to smoke
There's vodka and lime, and there's whisky and coke
And there's fog and there's snow and there's ice and there's rain
And I'm booked next August for two weeks in Spain
How can it end when you've still things to do
How can it end when you don't want it to
