+The internet doesn't seem to have these lyrics, and it's a great shame.
+
+### Raise the Class - Dayna Kurtz
+> I think this Jesus sounds like a great man,  
+> He's humble and grateful and kind as he can.  
+> That hatred and violence births hatred again.  
+> I think this Jesus sounds like a great man.  
+>
+> But what if the rapture's entirely manmade?  
+> What if it's coming and no-one gets saved?  
+> At least three of the horsemen already in play.  
+> What if the rapture's entirely manmade?  
+>
+> *[chorus]*  
+> Whose flag will unfurl? Who'll bang the last girl?  
+> Who'll kick the best ass at the end of the world?  
+> Who'll watch the last dawn? Who'll sing the last song?  
+> Who'll raise the last glass at the end of the world?  
+>
+> What if the trouble came straight to your door?  
+> What if your table knew plenty no more?  
+> With whom would you share and from whom would you hoard?  
+> What if the trouble came straight to your door?  
+>
+> What if this planet is all that we get?  
+> What if we ruin her and nothing comes next?  
+> What would we remember what would we regret?  
+> What if this planet is all that we get?  
+>
+> *[chorus]*
+>
+> What would he think about who we've become?  
+> Our slavery to power and money and guns?  
+> And hatred of strangers passed father to son?  
+> What would he think about who we've become?  
+>
+> I think if Jesus comes back he'd be shaking his head.  
+> As we searched for the missing and count all our dead.  
+> He'd say, "Dead you aren't dead, didn't you hear what I said?"  
+> I think if Jesus comes back he'd be shaking his head.  
+>
+> *[chorus]*

+(I did this just by ear--it's not definite. The [whole album][rf] is
+excellent.)
