A gigantic bird soars through the sky
While the inhabitants of earth rise
from their slumber
As the clock hits 8:44 a.m.,
The clerk compresses the glowing
number
As the clock hits 8:45 a.m.,
The fiery gates of Hell open in an
enormous explosin
Bone chilling screams and smoldering
bodies fill the heavens
As we hear another deadly explosion
As the clock hits 9:04 a.m.,
The vast heavens begin to turn black
Human entrails line the streets
America is under attack!
As the clock hits 9:59 a.m.,
One starts to hear the screeching
sounds of failing metal beams
Just then the heavens filled with
smoke and fiery ashes
Again, one hears those deadly screams
Suddenly, a petite little girl
squeals out
"OH, MOMMY, PLEASE DON'T DIE!"
But, alll she could do was weep
And say her last goodbye
