Is it gonna go down laughing
Is it gonna go out with a bang
Is there gonna be a fanfare
Is there gonna be a creak
Or a whole salvation army band
Are we gonna hear it beak
What kind of noise will it make?
What kind of noise will it make?

Are they gonna sing hymns round the fire
Will it crackle like the bones of the damned
Are our million little Gods gonna run for the hills
Proclaiming this is not what they had planned
Are we gonna hear it shake
What kind of noise will it make?
What kind of noise will it make?

You know I'm colour blind
Is this green or red
Cos all those monkeys who should be typing Shakespeare
Are pushing buttons instead

Will it sound like a plane through the window
Or a verse of Auld Lang Syne
Tell me that I'm wrong
Come on tell me
I've watched Bob Peck onto many times
Yeah I know just whats at stake
But what kind of noise will it make?
What kind of noise will it make?
You know I'm colour blind
Is this green or red
Cos all those monkeys who should be typing Shakespeare
Are pushing buttons instead

And is it gonna sound like Strummer
Or is it gonna sound like Brahms
Or will it not make a peep
Will we just hear the snap
Of all those useless lucky charms
Will we hear it way too late
What kind of noise will it make?
What kind of noise will it make?
What kind of noise will it make?
All I wanna know is
What kind of noise will it make?
