Last Man on Earth Lyrics

I don't know why my whole world came crashing down
I just woke up in lonely town
I opened up my eyes and much to my surprise
Look at this heaven that I've found

Don't need to care about tomorrow
I got no pain, I got no sorrow

I'm the last man on earth
So tell me what it's worth
Am I a beggar or a king?
Got no trouble, got no time, eternity is mine
I got a whole lot of everything

I can take this town and just burn it to the ground
Smash every window that I see
I can smoke, I can drink, I can swear and I can stink
There ain't no one to bother me, no no

Don't need to care about tomorrow
I got no pain, I got no sorrow

I'm the last man on earth
So tell me what it's worth
Am I a beggar or a king?
Got no trouble, got no time, eternity is mine
I got a whole lot of everything
It's all mine...

See Alice Cooper Live

Get tickets as low as $49

There's not a single soul to talk to me
But that's okay I never liked them

I'm the last man on earth
And I know what it's worth
I'm not a beggar I'm a king!
Got no troubles, got no time, and everything is fine
Coz I'm the king of everything
It's all mine...
Mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine

About

This song bio is unreviewed

“Last Man on Earth” details what happens to Alice after the train wreck at the end of the song “A Runaway Train”.

The song (described as unexpected and “out there”) is reminiscent of a Tom Waits song, and is also similar to “Some Folks” from Welcome to My Nightmare.

The melody is from popular Yiddish song “Bei Mir Bistu Shein”
