Big Bad World |
Woah oh oh oh woah |
I tip my head back, and I’m staring at the stars |
Just pissing this night away |
I’ve been praying for something from above to come down and save me |
It’s been a long one working for the man all day |
It’s been a long one dying just to get away |
Well it’s a roll of the dice |
Your luck’s finally run |
You’re picking your lucky numbers 'cause you’re lucky number one |
Digging into your pockets scrimping scraping every hole |
For the things that you wanted |
You’re at the pump woah! |
You belong to them in your own mind |
You got to break your back to break even almost every time |
Work days, week days, weak plays |
Something’s gotta change before you go insane |
And you know |
(It's a big bad world) |
That it goes on and on and on and on you know |
(It's a big bad world) |
That it goes on and on, the same old song you know |
(It's a big bad world) |
That it goes on and on, and it’s the same old song |
There’s nothing you can do |
But break your back in two |
But you just can’t quit |
So you work, and you pay |
And you break your back for another day |
In this big bad world, well it’s a big bad world |
And you work, and you pay |
And you break your back for another day |
In this big bad world, it’s a big bad world |
Well it’s a toss up |
All around the world a suit and tie pawn shop |
It’s a blue collar prop placed in regular sweat shops |
It’s a new game they play that goes around the whole clock |
But what’s the difference when you’re running around and you’re trying to get |
ahead STOP! |
Twenty bucks at the pump, hey |
Twenty bucks more the same day |
Twenty bucks at the pump, hey |
They got you going crazy |
Welcome to the party break your back at the front door |
Check your checks and call a party at the pump war |
And you know |
(It's a big bad world) |
That it goes on and on and on and on you know |
(It's a big bad world) |
That it goes on and on, the same old song you know |
(It's a big bad world) |
That it goes on and on, and it’s the same old song |
There’s nothing you can do |
But break your back in two |
But you just can’t quit |
So you work, and you pay |
And you break your back for another day |
In this big bad world, well it’s a big bad world |
And you work, and you pay |
And you break your back for another day |
In this big bad world, it’s a big bad world |
(Guitar solo) |
So you work, and you pay |
And you break your back for another day |
We’re in this big bad world, well it’s a big bad world |
No more you work, no more pay |
Don’t wanna break my back for another day |
In this big bad world, it’s a big bad world |
La de da, la da da de da |
La de da, la da da de da |
La de da, la da da de da |
No more work, WORK! |
No more play, PLAY! |
Don’t wanna break my back for one more day |
In this big bad world, it’s a big bad world |
And we are waiting for that new day to come |
