Cruel World
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.
It's a cruel world now
They don't seem to notice you no more
You cannot figure them out
They will never show who they really are
Now you got the fiends
Got the dreams
Got the biggest eyes
They got the keys
Got the deeds
To your golden prize
Chemical needs
You're getting clean
Back on that horse and ride
Now they're getting mean
You beg and plead
You're paralyzed
And it's over for you
They will eat you alive
They're gonna tear you to pieces, pieces
And oh, it's a cruel world, it's a cruel world
Oh, it's a cruel world, it's a cruel world
Oh, it's a cruel world, it's a cruel world
Oh, it's a cruel, cruel world
She is pristine
A beauty queen
Her silky skin
Calling you over
So you can show her
You're worth getting in
We are the future
She says
We are the golden kids
Be only like us
No one can touch us
Higher than we've ever been
And it's over for you
We will eat you alive
We're gonna tear you to pieces, pieces
And oh, it's a cruel world, it's a cruel world
Oh, it's a cruel world, it's a cruel world
Oh, it's a cruel world, it's a cruel world
Oh, it's a cruel, cruel world
Cruel, cruel, cruel
Yeah, cruel, cruel, cruel
Cruel, cruel, cruel
Oh, it's a cruel world, it's a cruel world
Oh, it's a cruel world, cruel world
Oh, it's a cruel world, it's a cruel world
Oh, it's a cruel, cruel world
