Lyrics

The World Today
(McCallion/Krieger)

Who’s that talking on TV
He don’t give a damn about me
He appeals to somebody
And that’s the world today

Look what he has learned to do
Lie until the lie comes true
Just like dreams are s’posed to do
‘Cause that’s the world today

It was a peaceful protest
Someone brought a gun
There’s nothing to fear hear
Everybody run

I’m just dangling on a string
Afraid of what the day will bring
Worried ‘bout the new worst thing
Cause that’s the world today

Look who’s on the screen again
Telling me go out and spend
Get together with my friends
And it will be okay

It was a peaceful protest
Someone brought a gun
There’s nothing to fear hear
Everybody run

And I’m still dangling on a string
Afraid of what of what the day will bring
Waiting for the new worst thing
‘Cause that’s the world today
