I get the feeling it was different here
Before we came along
Another young man murdered on my TV there
Seems so far from my comfy chair
The world isn`t good the world ain`t bad
The world ain`t happy and the world ain`t sad
The thing about the world is it`s gone mad
(The thing about the world is...)
I get the feeling it was different here
Before we came along
Everybody`s talking `bout the good old days
How could they all be wrong?
The thing about the world is it`s gone mad
Only world that we`ve ever had
The only world that we can use
It`s big and round and it`s got the blues
(The thing about the world is...)
The world isn`t good the world ain`t bad
The world ain`t happy, the world ain`t sad
The thing about the world is it`s gone mad
(The thing about the world is...)
I get the feeling it was different here
Before we came along
Everybody`s talking `bout the good old days
How could they all be wrong?
In a world gone mad...
Business man sittin` on a big empire
Only took one day to set Rome on fire
Food on the table in the lucky cases
Sweet expressions on the children`s faces
(The thing about the world is...)
The world isn`t good the world ain`t bad
The world ain`t happy and the world ain`t sad
The thing about the world is it`s gone mad
(The thing about the world is...)
I get the feeling it was different here
Before we came along
Everybody`s talking `bout the good old days
How could they all be wrong?..
