Lyrics

SWEET WORLD
This old world is dripping away
Getting faster every passing day
And the wise man says “she’ll soon be gone”
And the wise man is never wrong

This old world is spinning away
Turning faster every passing day
And the wise man says that “only a fool
Would let this sweet world spin out of control”

This old world she’s been shackled in chains
From her mountains to her fertile plains
And the wise man says “the future ain’t bright”
And the wise man you know is always right

This old world is dripping away
Getting faster every passing day
And the wise man says “she’ll soon be gone”
And the wise man is never wrong
The wise man is never wrong
