Sad World

When you're down and out
Nobody wants to know you
A boy and girl, running far away
They won't get far

Somebody gets shot
And somebody else laughs
They think it's so funny

It's a sad world
The river can swallow you up
Please take me away
With all the mad men
I'd be better off in this day and age
Take me away

It's a game
Life's a game
And it's an evil game

Everybody is out for one's self
The wind blew and I went up to heaven
For one day
The old man in a greatcoat
Always so sad in this sad world

The devil is laughing
At all thе sad people in the sad world
Takе another toke to get your head together
Always drinking all night long
If you could

Jodie's gone to sleep now
We can speak about sadness in the world
Joe is crossing the road (It's a sad world)
Car comes and knocks him done
Somebody screamed
Into a dream

The wind hollered
I could see the fire in hell
In a dream
The man and the woman
Are oh, so frightened
So scared

The little child is always crying
There's a shadow
Following me
Somebody, I think
Coming to kill me (I'm coming to kill ya)

Somebody said goodnight (Goodnight)
And then they
Killed me (Oh)
Somebody knew (Oh)
Which way the boys are fighting in the corner
Always fighting, crying

The world will end someday
Won't be too soon
