Armageddon Boogie
We are onto track 6, the title track!
Armageddon Boogie.
Now that one has a nice drum shuffle to it, like Pasadena 4… which … you know… didn’t start with Alex Van Halen but sure became popular with Hot for Teacher!
That shuffle drum groove makes it another “fun” sounding song but this one has quite a serious subject … just delivered in a fun way!
Essentially, during the “time off” we had all over the world in 2020… I saw a lot on TV here in the UK certain high-ups “mouthing off” to other world leaders, almost without a care. The leaders of the world need to be more careful sometimes with what they say. Because it just takes that one crazy person who isn’t thinking correctly to take you seriously with your criticisms. Leaders can push other leaders too far and in these new days of Hypersonic Nuclear weapons, leaders need to be very careful with their political rhetoric. We saw some leaders put the world in jeopardy with their careless use of their language.
If they want to dance “The Armageddon Boogie” and poke the bear, then they need to get ready … we may all suffer the consequences.
ARMAGEDDON BOOGIE

Ok, so what do these idiots think they’re doing to us
right now, they’re gonna get us all blown to
smithereens, so get ready to dance, everybody
information overload, i don’t know
what to believe, armageddon
the media, talking heads, clowns on the tv, blah blah blah
crooked politicians, y’all just make me ill
don’t pass go, go to jail or take a poison pill
everything is spinning, we all go round and round
the armageddon boogie, it’s the hottest thing in town
a new beginning, a brand-new sound
the armageddon boogie, it’s the hottest dance around
c’mon, dance with me baby
playing us, you’ve had your fun, i hope you’re
feeling proud, well, you shouldn’t be
telling lies and pushing fear but parties are allowed, say what
swing it out, just like that
create division and lock us down, you fill us up with rage
you bit the hand that fed you, now you’re
the one off to the cage, lookout
a brand-new sound, this is the hottest thing in
town, baby, the armageddon boogie
you politicians make me sick, you know
what, yer fired, gone, bye
go, ya, that’s right, boogie, get up, get up
