  • The whole world sitting on a ticking bomb
    The whole world sitting on a ticking bomb
    So keep your calm and carry on
    The whole world sitting on a ticking bomb

    The sun may never rise again
    The question ain't if but when
    The sea will mourn, the sky will fall
    The sun may never rise again
    The silent war has begun
    We're staring down loaded gun
    No refuge found no solid ground
    Assuming race can't be won
    Don't wait to say goodbye, you're running out of time
    Whatever you believe, it's easy to see

    The whole world sitting on a ticking bomb
    The whole world sitting on a ticking bomb
    So keep your calm and carry on
    The whole world sitting on a ticking bomb
    And it's about to explode
    The whole world, the whole world
    The whole world, the whole world

    The future is a dying art
    Laying in a ditch in the dark
    I need you here but all I hear
    Is the beating of a broken heart
    Don't wait to say goodbye, you're running out of time
    Whatever you believe, it's easy to see

    The whole world sitting on a ticking bomb
    The whole world sitting on a ticking bomb
    So keep your calm and carry on
    The whole world sitting on a ticking bomb
    And it's about to explode
    The whole world, the whole world
    The whole world, the whole world
    And it's about to explode
    The whole world, the whole world
    The whole world, the whole world
    The whole world sitting on a ticking bomb
    The whole world sitting on a ticking bomb
    And it don't care what side you're on
    The whole world sitting on a ticking bomb
    The whole world, the whole world
    The whole world, the whole world
    So keep your calm and carry on
    The whole world sitting on a ticking bomb Writer/s: ADAM SCHMALHOLZ, ANTONINA ARMATO, EGBERT DAWKINS, TIMOTHY JAMES
