The World is a Wonderful Place
  
Intro:         
 
                       
Lovers pair off and they fall into bed
                               
The same old lies trip off the tongue
                                     
A few lonely hearts stand and prop up the room 
                   
The night is young
 

               
Envy the bodies asleep on the floor
                          
Dreaming some comfortable dream
                                      
And envy the drunk as he falls through the door
                     
For the world is drunk I see
 
Chorus:
                           
You live and you die, there's no reason why
                     
The world is a wonderful place
                               
The poor live in pain, they're sick and insane
                         
Ah, the world is a wonderful place
                      
How does it feel to be nothing
                      
How does it feel to be small
                            
Oh hard on that pine, it's the end of the line
                             Intro
Ah, the world is a wonderful place
 
Another year older and nothing to show
Is this what I grew up to be?
Oh you birthday boy here's a pat on the back
You’re a sight to see
 
Am I just a clown like the fools gathered here
Am I nothing special at all
If this is called living, IUm folding my hand
I’m sick of the same brick wall
 
Chorus
