[Verse 1]

Big shots argue about what they've got

Making the planet so hot

Hot as a holocaust

Blow up, everything's gonna go up

Even if you don't show up

In your Chemise Lacoste


[Chorus]

Total eclipse, it's a total eclipse

It's a total eclipse of the sun

Can't come to grips with the total eclipse

Just a slip of your lips and you're done


[Verse 2]

Fallout, nobody left to crawl out

If someone calls we're all out

Turning into French fries

Last dance, let the entire cast dance

Do the dismembered blast dance

As we get atomized


[Chorus]

Total eclipse, it's a total eclipse

It's a total eclipse of the sun

Can't come to grips with the total eclipse

Just a slip of your lips and you're done


[Instrumental Bridge]


[Chorus]

Total eclipse, it's a total eclipse

It's a total eclipse of the sun

Can't come to grips with the total eclipse

Just a slip of your lips and you're done
