lyrics

Here I am again sitting by myself
Sitting all alone with no one else
I like it like that, I like it that way
Never really cared for what you say

Walking up a hill with Jack and Jill
Got a 7 dollar bill to pay their way
Never took the time to look back down
Never took the time to stop and play

This world is taking me over
It's taking me over

Money to the poor, money to the rich
Isn't life strange isn't life a bitch
Bitter and twisted, evil and cold
Feeling kind of different now you're looking kind of old
Led by the blind, uranium mines
Bullets and bombs and protest songs
Headline, front-line, cable and war
Feeling kind of sick from the blood you saw

This world is taking me over
It's taking me over

Here I am again sitting by myself
Sitting all alone with no one else
I like it like that, I like it that way
Never really cared for what you say

Walking up a hill with Jack and Jill
Got a 7 dollar bill, it never paid their way
Never took the time to look back down
Never took the time to stop and play

This world is taking me over
It's taking me over
