    Story Behind the Song
    While reading world events in the Sunday paper and listening to the news on television, Charlie fell asleep on the sofa on Easter Sunday. The first thing he heard as he awoke was that another human bomber had blown himself up in Israel and killed many people. As happens quite often, he went straight to the computer and wrote down the lyrics to this song. When Steve came over the next day they immediately went to work on the music. 5 weeks later after much soul searching and a lot of work "Is This The End Of The World" was finally completed. The biggest debate among the band members is what the reaction will be. Isn't that a good thing for music to do? Dori's vocals once again elevate the song to another level.

    Lyrics
    Is this the end of the world as we know it?
    Will our lives ever be the same?
    Is everything that we've known coming to an end?
    Is the asylum being run by the insane?
    Is this the end of the world as we know it?
    Will I see you tomorrow my friend?
    I wasn't there when God created flowers for the garden.
    But I just might be there for the end.

    Today tanks went rolling through the West Bank.
    Searching for terrorist high and low.
    Human bombs killing people by the score.
    The night sky lit up by fire glow.
    Today's Easter Sunday and wouldn't you know it?
    Bombers blew more babies up today.
    A day of resurrection.
    A time for reflection.
    Pity it had to end up this way.

    Is this the end of the world as we know it?
    Will our lives ever be the same?
    Is everything that we've known coming to an end?
    Is the asylum being run by the insane?
    Is this the end of the world as we know it?
    Will I see you tomorrow my friend?
    I wasn't there when God created flowers for the garden.
    But I just might be there for the end.

    The world's bursting open with all of its anger.
    All we ever hear is bad news.
    The Axis Of Evil paying blood money.
    Sacrificing kids to kill Jews.
    Will this be the last war? I ask you my brother.
    Is this how it comes down my friend?
    I never thought I'd be around to see the last day.
    When this old world blows up in the end.

    Is this the end of the world as we know it?
    Will our lives ever be the same?
    Is everything that we've known coming to an end?
    Is the asylum being run by the insane?
    Is this the end of the world as we know it?
    Will I see you tomorrow my friend?
    I wasn't there when God created flowers for the garden.
    But I just might be there for the end.
