|
What you've got, you had to steal |
|
That's the reason |
|
For how you feel |
|
Considerin' what you've done so far |
|
I'm rather amazed |
|
At where you are |
|
Lift your head up, baby |
|
Pull yourself together |
|
Nothing's worse than dying slow |
|
There's no reason, darlin', |
|
Reason whatsoever |
|
That we can't end this game of touch and go |
|
Chorus |
|
It's such a cruel world |
|
When you have to think twice, |
|
And you're caught up in this roundabout |
|
It's such a cruel world |
|
When your back's against the wall and there's no way out |
|
You're not giving it up, but you're giving it out |
|
Seems too me, |
|
You got a little too much doubt |
|
Augmentation, |
|
Is what you need |
|
Your generosity |
|
Looks alot like greed |
|
You might call me crazy |
|
If you don't understand it |
|
There's no way for you to know |
|
You say love is hazy, |
|
And you don't demand it |
|
But can't we end this game of touch and go |
|
Chorus |
|
It's such a cruel world |
|
When nothin' goes right |
|
And the plans you made |
|
Start falling 'round you |
|
It's such a cruel world |
|
Well, just throw me the rope, baby |
|
And pull me out |
|
You've got that kind of love, |
|
It flows like a fountain |
|
But sometimes love can be unkind |
|
My kind of love, you know |
|
It's higher than a mountain |
|
But love can be so hard to find |
|
Lift your head up, baby |
|
Pull yourself together |
|
Nothing's worse than dying slow |
|
There's no reason, darlin', reason whatsoever |
|
That we can't end this game of touch and go |
|
Chorus |
|
It's such a cruel world |
|
When you have to think twice |
|
And you're caught up in this roundabout |
|
It's such a cruel world |
|
When your back's against the wall and there's no way out |
|
It's such a cruel world |
|
It's such a cruel world out there baby |
|
It's such a cruel world |
|
It's such a cruel cruel world and there's no way out |
|
Get you right |
|
Wanna get you right |
|
Oh I |
|
I see darkness in your future baby |
|
Oh I |
|
In a tunnel black as night |
|
Oh I |
|
See a rich man with his hand out baby |
|
Oh I |
|
Know a seer with no sight |
|
Oh I |
|
Watch fire burn those bridges baby |
|
Oh I |
|
Feel a wrong turn into right |
