VIOLENT FEMMES

- World We're Living In Lyrics

I can't go out no more
I just better stay at home
I can't go out no more
I just better stay all alone

'Cause what am I gonna do
If I see someone, I'd like to do something to
And what am I gonna say
If I see someone I'd like to say something to

I can't help being careful
Did you notice the world that we're living in?

I can't go out no more
I just better stay at home
I can't go out no more
I just better stay all alone

And what am I gonna say
If I see someone, I'd like to say something to
And what am I gonna do
If I see someone, I'd like to do something to

I can't help being careful
Did you notice the world that we're living in?

Did you notice? Did you see?
Something might happen to me
Did you notice a chill in the wind?
Did you notice the world that we're living in?
People are dying
People are dying
People are dying just because they had a little
People are dying

Girlfriend, is not my girlfriend
My neighbor is not my lover
Boyfriend, is not my boyfriend
My brother is not my lover

Behavior is not my behavior
My neighbor is not my savior

Didn't you notice the world?
Didn't you notice the world that we're living in?
Didn't you notice the world?
Didn't you notice the world that we're living in?

Didn't you notice the world?
Didn't you notice the world that we're living in?
Didn't you notice the world?
Didn't you notice the world that we're living in?

Didn't you notice the world?
Didn't you notice the world that we're living in?
Didn't you notice the world?
Didn't you notice the world that we're living in?
