1.
America is an irradiated wasteland Within it lies a city Outside the boundary walls a desert A cursed earth inside the walls a cursed city Stretching from Boston to Washington, D.C. An unbroken concrete landscape Of 800 million people Mega blocks Mega highways Mega City One Convulsing choking Breaking under its own weight Citizens In fear of the street The shitty fucking cop Only one thing not Fighting for order in the chaos Is not the men and women In the Hall of Justice Not juries Not executioners Not judges
2.
The future: the polar ice caps have melted Covering the Earth With water those who survived have adapted To a new world Bad luck English But the Slavers are producing A good grade of poxy these days Cost you a handful of dirt Or maybe that wind chime What are you doing here Just waiting Take your hand off the sail Took it legal Previous owner was dead on the tiller when I found it I've seen your boat before For we shall suck and savor The sweet flavor of Dryland

Passengers This is not a shoe This is disorder This is size 10 chaos You see this? This is death In this locomotive we call home there is one thing Between our warm hearts and the bitter cold Clothing? No Jeans? No Order is the barrier that holds back the cold and death We must all of us On this train of life Remain in our allotted stations We must Each of us Occupy our preordained Particulate positions. Would you wear a shoe on your head Of course you wouldn't wear a shoe on your head A shoe belongs on your foot A hat belongs on your head I am a hat you are a shoe I belong on the head you belong on the foot Yes so it is In the beginning order was prescribed by your ticket First bus, economy Eternal order is prescribed
4.
My life fades The vision dims All that remains are memories A time of chaos ruined this wasteland Their world crumbled The cities exploded On the roads it was a white-line nightmare Their leaders talked and talked And talked You hoard your gas Look around you Now your prisoners Say you plan To take your gasoline out of the Wasteland We've all lost someone we love But we do it my way Just walk away Fear is our ally Take him away The gasoline will be ours Then you shall have your revenge There has been too much violence None are here are without sin Nothing can escape We come with an offer We do it my way
5.
Day 1,000 Of the siege of Seattle The Muslim community demands An end to The Army's occupation of mosques The Homeland Security bill is ratified After eight years British borders will remain closed The deportation of immigrants continues Good morning our lead story The world was stunned today The youngest person on the planet After refusing to sign an autograph Baby Diego was fucking stabbed Outside a bar in Buenos Aires Witnesses at the scene say Excuse me Diego spat in the face Of a fan who asked for an autograph He was killed In the ensuing brawl The fan was later beaten to death

about

In explaining End Credits, the band says: “This record specifically focuses on the apocalypse. Given it will be the last release, it looks like a script that has caught on fire. Songs/films covered in this are Snowpiercer, Children Of Men, Mad Max, Dredd, and Waterworld. Although there seems like a proliferation of post-apocalypse or dystopian films in light of the last couple of years, all of these songs/films/lyrics predate COVID. On top of that, in the style of how the songs/lyrics are put together, typical Jason and Kyle are representing different characters in any given script, transferred into song lyrics.”
