It's The End Of The Worlds As We Know It
(And Todd Feels Pissed)
by Lurker

(to the tune of "Its the End of the World As We Know It" by REM)

That's great it starts with rejected proposals
Snake-quanta and Foggy Fed winking at each other
Todd Eldredge is not afraid
Eye of a hurricane listen to your Heroic Heart

ISU serves no one's needs Il Dummy serves his own whims
Speedy is a Fascist Speedy ill talk Speedy's nose grows long
The swill swells as he chatters till our dinner comes back up
Who in this mess represents the Figure Skaters' interests
In a Governing Body for hire and a combat site?

Stinky wasn't thinking in a hurry
With the Euros breathing down his neck
Team by team reporters buy his trumped up crap
Look at that low species defecate there
Uh oh overflow! Figure Skaters smeared!

But Todd'll do save our sport serve the greater need
FSW sees your Quest listen to your heartbeat
Don't tell me that the Fascists are in the reverend in the right right?
My vitriolic vitriolic slam fight right might
feeling pretty pissed

It's the end of the Worlds as we know it
It's the end of the Worlds as we know it
It's the end of the Worlds as we know it and Todd's had enough.

Six o' score TV hour don't get caught by foreign power
Salchow and lutz spin listen to yourself turn
Squeeze into uniform
And ice-burning blood-rushing every move scrutinized
Emote the motif generate! lighter tread lighter landings!
Step and footwork watch your heels rush rush
Uh oh this means no fear cavalier renegade stay clear
A tournament a tournament a tournament of el's
Cut Todd some slack give Todd alternatives or he declines

It's the end of the Worlds as we know it
(It's time Todd caught some break!)
It's the end of the Worlds as we know it
(It's time Stinkwanta was gone)
It's the end of the Worlds as we know it and Todd feels feisty

The other night I surfed my worldwide web to find
Lefevre Stillwell Dick Button Carroll Callaghan
Phil Hersh Bev Smith Christine Brennan
Partyline Cheesy Bits Jello Brains Non-rules
You sanction teasing Slam! foot in the mouth right right
