With Apologies to Lerner and Loewe

Sung to the tune of "I'm Getting Married in the Morning" 
from My Fair Lady


There's just a few more hours, that's all the time they've left
A few more hours, before they all get swept...

Oh, they're getting swept up in the EVEning!
Ding dong the Earth is gonna chime!
Untie yer Pale Horse! They've ridden their course,
So get them Raptured up on time!

When they are flying, don't shoot 'em down,
Cuz we are shooing fanatics from our towns!

Oh, they're getting swept up in the EVEning!
Ding dong the Earth is gonna chime!
Untie yer Pale Horse! They've ridden their course,
So get them Raptured up, get them Raptured up
For Earth's sake get them Raptured uuuuuup
On tiiiiiiiiiiiime!

Thank you, Harold Camping and similarly-minded extreme religious fanatics. 
While I pray for healing of the untold pain your fervent beliefs have inflicted on your families & communities
...you've unquestionably helped me and my friends to party like it's 2013.

  1. btw... must take exception with "perfect"... (as much as i appreciate the word)...

    (a) i skipped parodying the entire thing out of a combination of expediency and laziness/

    (2) "perfect" is an impossible state for a human's creation, in my esteem... i'm comfortable with the mary poppins take on such things, tho: "practically perfect in every way!" (heavy on the practical ;-)
