Lyrics Hello Cruel World - Mekons

Hello Cruel World

Doubt and resentment
Bile in my stomach
Feelings of hate and a pain behind my eyes
Looking at a world that’s shaking slightly
My ears are filling with rubbish
Can’t find it and make it work
Hello cruel world
Hello cruel world
Walking through the barbed wire
Sinking in the mud
I heard you singing
You sounded brave
Stepping over broken bodies
Ignore my trembling hands
Don’t think of this as blood
I know it is
Just pretend it doesn’t hurt
Hello cruel world
Hello cruel world
Hello cruel world
Hello cruel world
Walking through the barbed wire
Sinking in the mud
I heard you singing
You sounded brave
Stepping over broken bodies
Ignore my trembling hands
Don’t think of this as blood
I know it is
Just pretend it doesn’t hurt
Hello cruel world
Hello cruel world
Hello cruel world
Hello cruel world
It’s a cruel world
It’s a cruel world
It’s a cruel world
Come on cruel world
Show me what you’ve got
