Okay....This song starts out with what sounds like a snake rattling/ hissing. So, maybe that's what its meant to be - SARCASM towards what is evil-stupid. I sure hope so.

IF it was meant to be sarcasm, though, the RISK of such a number is that there's likely to be people who just take it and love it like it is - literally - correct?

The "nothing really matters" crowd needs to be elevated with truth and hope; not reinforced to just stay as is....

"Waiting for the rapture" won't do it, either - because there WON'T BE a "rapture" (that's a manmade teaching, NOT a scriptural one).

No, instead, people need to break away and go to "where there's life", for real.

I DID like the "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" bit - the part that went something like, "Testing, 1,2,3...Gentlemen, ladies, take your positions,please. This is NOT a drill; I repeat, this is NOT a drill. Could we have the lights in the arena down 60% please....I don't think we could ask for a more beautiful evening, do you?"
