I just found out about the asteroid
The scientists say it is right on course
Impact is five months three hours two days
I guess our plans have changed

I can't look away
I can't look away

They say it's the size of ten football fields
I must admit that doesn't seem so big
But at the speed that it is traveling
It will do when it hits

I can't look away
I can't look away
I can't look away
I can't look away

They named it 21 Perses
They're hoping that their numbers are wrong
Or by some unholy miracle
It'll miss us and travel on

I can't look away
I can't look away

So here we are the morning the day of
Making sure all of the loose ends are tied off
Everyone is surprisingly calm
Maybe we're weren't so bad after all

I can't look away
I can't look away
