Default What's the World Coming To lyrics

Wow, Lindsey takes on the corporations. I love it. Another political song. Right on!


The corporate barons
They sell the paper money
Evaporates into the gas of spent dreams
And it’s much worse than it seems
Cuz no one hears the silent screams
But don’t you mind, don’t waste your time
Cuz they’ve got some brand new schemes

What’s the world coming to
Now tell me, what’s the world coming to
I’m feeling sick, how about you
What’s the world coming to
What’s the world coming to
What’s the world coming to

Boardroom scoundrels
They’re just sitting pretty
They know they cannot be touched
Because the watchers, they no longer watch
They bought the power and wrote off the costs
And as you wonder what brought you under
They’ve moved on, carved another notch

What’s the world coming to
Now tell me, what’s the world coming to
I’m feeling sick, how about you
What’s the world coming to
What’s the world coming to
What’s the world coming to

What’s the world coming to
Now tell me, what’s the world coming to
I’m feeling sick with the things you do
What’s the world coming to
What’s the world coming to
What’s the world coming to
I’m feeling sick, how about you
I’m feeling sick, the things you do


So, what do you think?





*You didn't fall for this again, did you?

Good job Carne. You should copyright it. I think you have talent, I hope you are using that talent as part of your job.

Why, thank you. Uh, hum, er, of course I use this talent in my job... No, not really. I only get to edit other people's stuff anymore. Perhaps why I'm so critical?

Hey, Sodascouts, do you have Tom's number?

Carne, where did you get these lyrics?

And Lindsey says he's apolitical.

Quite important to note this, I say...

Great song. Next to that, George Harrison's "Brainwashed" sounds like an innocent lullaby.


Song of the moment - Morning Rain
