Wiki:
"When Worlds Collide" is a single of the heavy metal band Powerman 5000 from their album Tonight the Stars Revolt!. The song is virtually always the last song to be played at concerts. It is one of the band's most well-known songs and has been used in the video games Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 and WWE Smackdown! vs. Raw, Little Nicky and "The Best Damn Beat Downs 2" from The Best Damn Sports Show Period. It is also used as Purdue University's entrance music for football games. A song from Spongebob Squarepants also entitled "When Worlds Collide" is probably a parody of the Powerman 5000 song. It must also be noted that there is a fictional rock band in Spongebob called 'Stingray 5000' which may be a parody of PM5K. This song is possibly based on the science-fiction hero, Flash Gordon.
Lyrics:
[Intro] Now this is what it's like when worlds collide Now this is what it's like Now this is what it's like when worlds collide Now this is what it's like [Verse 1] What is it really that's goin' on here? You've got the system for total control Now is there anybody out there? Now watch us suffer, yeah, 'cause we can't go What is it really that is in your head? What little life that you had just died I'm gonna be the one that's takin' over Now this is what it's like when worlds collide [Chorus] Are you ready to go? Cause I'm ready to go What you gonna do, baby, baby? Are you goin' with me? Cause I'm goin' with you That's the end of all time [Verse 2] What is it really that motivates you? The need to fly or this fierce stop? I'll go along, but then you'll realize When we get there, I say nine of ten drop Now who's the light and who is the Devil? You can't decide, so I'll be your guide And one by one, they will be hand-chosen Now this is what it's like when worlds collide [Chorus] Are you ready to go? Cause I'm ready to go What you gonna do, baby, baby? Are you goin' with me? Cause I'm goin' with you That's the end of all time [Bridge] (You are a robot) Now this is what it's like when worlds collide Now this is what it's like Now this is what it's like when worlds collide Now this is what it's like [Verse 3] What is it really when they're fallin' over? Everything that you thought was denied I'm gonna be the one that's takin' over Now this is what it's like when worlds collide [Chorus] Are you ready to go? Cause I'm ready to go What you gonna do, baby, baby? Are you goin' with me? Cause I'm goin' with you That's the end of all time Are you ready to go? Cause I'm ready to go What you gonna do, baby, baby? Are you goin' with me? Cause I'm goin' with you That's the end of all time [Outro] Are you ready? Yeah, I'm ready That's the end of all time Are you goin'? Yeah I'm goin' That's the end of all time
