International disaster, gonna be a blaster
Gonna rearrange our lives
International disaster, send for the master
Don't wait to see the white of his eyes
International disaster, international disaster
Price of silver droppin' so do yer Christmas shopping
Before you lose the chance to score (Pembroke)

Any day you like. Do not use past tense. If you want to talk about something in the past, start with "I (will) tell you a story..."
They do have a word for will, maybe just "I now speak story."
