That's great, it starts with an earthquake
Birds and snakes, and aeroplanes
And Lenny Bruce is not afraid
Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn
World serves its own needs
Don't mis-serve your own needs
Speed it up a notch, speed, grunt, no, strength
The ladder starts to clatter
With a fear of height, down, height
Wire in a fire, represent the seven games
And a government for hire and a combat site
Left her, wasn't coming in a hurry
With the Furies breathing down your neck
Team by team, reporters baffled, trumped, tethered, cropped
Look at that low plane, fine, then
Uh oh, overflow, population, common group
But it'll do, save yourself, serve yourself
World serves its own needs, listen to your sun bleed
Tell me with the Rapture and the reverent in the right, right
You vitriolic, patriotic, slam fight, bright light
Feeling pretty psyched
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine
Six o'clock, T.V. hour, don't get caught in foreign tower
Slash and burn, return, listen to yourself churn
Lock him in uniform, book burning, bloodletting
Every motive escalate, automotive incinerate
Light a candle, light a motive, step down, step down
Watch your heel crush, crush, uh oh
This means no fear, cavalier, renegade and steering clear
A tournament, a tournament, a tournament of lies
Offer me solutions, offer me alternatives and I decline
It's the end of the world as we know it (I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it (I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine (time I had some time alone)
I feel fine (I feel fine)
It's the end of the world as we know it (time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it (time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine (time I had some time alone)
The other night I drifted nice continental drift divide
Mountains sit in a line, Leonard Bernstein
Leonid Brezhnev, Lenny Bruce and Lester Bangs
Birthday party, cheesecake, jellybean, boom
You symbiotic, patriotic, slam but neck, right, right
It's the end of the world as we know it (time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it (time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine (time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine (time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it (time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it (time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine (time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it (time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it (time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine (time I had some time alone)

It’s the End of the World as We Know It (and I Feel Fine) lyrics © Universal Music Publishing Group
C.: d.c., I just got off the phone with my thirty-third cousin twice removed from and mirror planet to Earth, and ELAC will be here in a day or two. She says that she’s going to get the PUMA to help us prevent Meow Z. Tongue from ending the world as we know it after he commandeers all of Earths' resources to power The Planet of the Talking Cats when it runs out of power in one million cat naps.
d.: That’s brilliant! Meow Z. Tongue, the evil ruler of the Cat Galaxy, must be stopped at all costs.
C.: It is? Well, Meow is a large cat, much larger than the largest small cat on this planet.
d.: That’s not what she’s talking about. PUMA is the name of an organization.
C.: So, it’s not a panther, a mountain lion, a cougar or a catamount that she’s talking about?
d.: No, and those are all names for the same animal.
C.: Well, is she talking about a single, middle-aged woman who likes to date younger men?
d.: No.
C.: d.c., what do you call a middle-aged man who likes to date much younger women?
d.: Bill, Harry, Tom, Robert, Tim, or whatever his name is.
C.: Okay, back to the original question. I know that PUMA is not an acronym for anything dirty, since this is a family-oriented blog.
d.: Yes, we try to go out of our way not to use profanity, or to make sexual innuendos.
C.: While Fascist Book,…er Facebook allows prostitutes to solicit on their website and others to put hard-core pornographic pictures on their profiles…
d.: And our blog gets taken down for a picture of the common area of an institute of higher learning. I think you had the name right the first time.
C.: So, d.c., what does PUMA stand for?
d.: Well, it looks like that's all the time we have for today, folks. Please join us tomorrow for another episode of Cal.e.'s Korner.
