The Story when two and two are five

Select language to translate this lyric

When two and two are five
You're gonna go to work like any other day
Things might be much different
God might be a vengeful one
Your desk might catch on fire
The church will hold a picnic
And Jesus and Elvis will get in free
When two and two are five
They'll change the world, make the faithful pay
The trees of the field and maybe the lilies
They will comfort you
But in the twinkling of an eye
There will be nothing
Two shakes of somebody's tail
No still small voice
Meanwhile I'm gonna sleep all day get half drunk each night
Be the nothing that is, I'll be the nothing that will be
I'm gonna sleep all day, get half drunk each night
Be the nothing that is, I'll be the nothing that will be
And in the darkest corners between conscience and faith
Lord, get my room ready, nothing is adding up
We'll meet the terrible angel
Straddling our pitiful fathers
Meanwhile I'm gonna sleep all day, get half drunk each night
Be the nothing that is, I'll be the nothing that will be
I'm gonna sleep all day, get half drunk each night
Be the nothing that is, I'll be the nothing that will be
All day, each night
All day, each night
Meanwhile I'm gonna sleep all day, get half drunk each night
Be the nothing that is, I'll be the nothing that will be
I'm gonna sleep all day, get half drunk each night
Be the nothing that is, I'll be the nothing that will be
All day, each night
All day, each night
All day
