Default Smashing Pumpkins and 2012

I saw a trailer for the movie 2012, started exploring on the internet a little for about 2012, and stumbled on this website mentioning SP. Not sure if these has already been discussed....

December 21 2012 Celebrity Believers

scroll down about half way. I'd never thought I'd see smashing pumpkins on the same side of the 'Venn Diagram' as lil Wayne.

"Smashing Pumpkins
The Smashing Pumpkins are an American alternative rock band that formed in Chicago, Illinois in 1988.[

Their beliefs are made clear in their song "Doomsday Clock"

Uhm, that song doesn't make anything clear.

This hasn't been discussed because the song is cringe-worthy, for one and there are no overt references to any Mayan prophecies secondly.

out of the entire zeitgeist album, there are way more cringe-worthy songs than DC. i think it's a good opener.

Guys I watched Apocalypto and I'm not worried any more because those Mayan chumps couldn't have predicted their way out of a paper bag

Is everyone afraid?
Is everyone ashamed?
They're running towards their holes to find out
Apocalyptic means are lost amongst our dead
A message to our friends to get out

There's wages on this fear
Oh so clear
Depends on what you'll pay to hear

They're bound to kill us all
In white-washed halls
The jackals lick their paws

Please don't stop
It's lonely at the top
These lonely days
When will they ever stop?
This doomsday clock tickin' in my heart
Not broken

I love life everyday
in each and every way
Khafka would be proud, to find out
I'm certain of the end,
it's the means that has me spooked
It takes an unknown truth to get out
I'm guessing that I'm born free, silly me
I was meant to beg from my knees

(chorus)
Please don't stop
It's lonely at the top
These lonely days
wWhen will they ever stop?
This doomsday clock ticking in my heart
These lonely days when will they ever stop?

We gotta dig in
Gas masks on
Wait in the sunshine, all bug-eyed
If this is living?
Sakes alive!
Well then they can't win, no one survives

Is everyone afraid?
You should be ashamed
Apocalyptic screams mean nothing to the dead
Kissing that ol' sun to know all there is
Come onn, last call!
You should want it all!

(chorus)
Ah, it's lonely at the top
These lonely days when will they ever stop?
This doomsday clock
Ticking in my heart
These lonely days when will they ever stop?
This ticking in my heart
Is everyone afraid?

"This doomsday clock a tickin' in my heart"

Oh my, what a terrible song this is (In my opinion). I'm pretty sure there is no real meaning behind this song, and was created just for a quick cheap thrill.
