Also an Elton John song…
Mr. Mayor, the mission burns
the zombies are marching, they close on the square
Families are cold, look down at their souls
huddled in camps on the marble steps of City Hall
Faith in their God, that’s all they’ve got
Across the room, beyond the pane
the whole world is churning, bleeding and burning
hailstorms and ash
the moon is as blood
over the soldiers who sag in the mud
Little boy, I’m just a man
a mere civil servant, against this tyrant God
I’ve allied with out King, salvation he brings
protecting the city against all the troops Heaven sent
but the dead walk again, this is the end
Oh I’m just a man, my time has come
Long live King Simius, may he deliver us
from thisn ightmare
and with a blast like the sun
his lips are unwrapped from the barrel of his gun
Gorgeous.
@...Nemesis: Same goes for this.
Very cool. I’ve been to that mission about a half dozen times, from school trips and the like. Pretty cool.
@...Nemesis:
I have always hated idiots that post song lyrics in the comments section of blogs. what are you trying to prove? are you trying to say something? then say it, don’t quote an entire stupid song at me. it’s tl;dr and I hate you because of it.

Dude shut up. All of the people on here who make the most comments have done it.
If something is so good, you just have to quote it in its entirety.
nyokki has done it, and most of the others too, as well as myself.
