This World

This World - Bill Fay

This world's got me in it's grip

Ain't no way I can wriggle out

Sometimes such a crazy place

Makes you wanna scream and shout

This world's holding all the keys

Gotta break it before it breaks me

Something gotta happen soon

Something set us free from this world this world this world

This world

This world is got me on my knees

There was a time when I used to stand tall

Too many years in the factories scrubbing floors and walls

Dealers on the corner of every street

Trying to sell me an easy way out

I ain't buying none of it

And I know what it's all about

For this world this world this world this world

This world is holding all the keys

Gotta break it before it breaks me

Something gotta happen soon

Something set us free from this world this world this world

This world
