World Comin' Down
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
For the kids in the schools
And the teachers are fools
And you just want to break
Well you're close to the edge
And you're pissed at your work
And the boss is a jerk
From promises to preacher
And nothing is nietzche
And i can't stand the church
I can have my opinion
And i don't want to win ya
Now i just have to work… alright!
Refrão
I feel the whole world comin'
Down on me
I feel the whole world comin'
Down on me
Well the judge and the jury
They thought they could school me
And teach me the value of thrift
They put me inside on a one ta five
And i just had to quit
Well early in the morning
When we are balling
I nearly had a fit
It came to my head
And i just had to say
Ain't gonna be nobody's bitch
Refrão
Comin' down
Down on me
It's comin' down
It's comin' down, down, down on me
There's only one thing
That i can do now
Go lie in the sun
I want to soak up the rays
And burn myself black
'cos cancer day has come
And everything you do
To protect yourself
Well it ain't gonna happen right
You junky pimps
And mother-fucking whores
Enjoy yourself tonight… alright!
Refrão
Comin' down
Down on me
It's comin' down
It's comin' down, down, down on me
Comin' down
Down on me
It's comin' down
It's comin' down, down, down
I feel the whole world
Comin' down, comin' down on me
I feel the whole world
Comin' down, comin' down on me
I feel the whole world
Comin' down, comin' down on me
I feel the whole world
Comin' down!
Down on me
It's comin' down
It's comin' down, down, down on me
