280 : 1/15/99 : Timetable

We have revised the timetable
on Armageddon for your race
so as to give you one last chance
which we fully expect you to throw back in our face
Look around you and look within
Is this what you sought to achieve
You have created a clockwork catastrophe
A machine designed only to deceive
Anyone awake enough to listen
Listen: your time is not so long
As you think so think about it
What is your calling what is your song
Our engines are ready to descend
The appraisers are among you
Your value has been weighed and measured
You can be replaced believe that it’s true
So we thought it best you knew
Better set your clocks ahead
Set your own timetable better safe than sorry
Punch your own clock or you’ll be punching ours instead
