Hello Cruel World Lyrics

Hello cruel world

 So this is you

 A broken heart

 But with a view

 I'm looking out to face another day

 

 The angry mob

 The happy mass

 This birthday cake may be the last

 I'm looking out to find another way

 

 Norman rockwell colors fade

 All my favorite things have changed

 But what the hell

 Hello cruel world

 

 I thought i heard an opera star

 Who had no home under the stars

 She sang and sang and sang the night away

 

 And mother nature changed her name

 She doesn't want to play the game

 I don't believe she'll ever be the same

 

 So big brother never came

 Howdy doody gets the blame

 But what the hell

 Hello cruel world

 

 Bad and beautiful and strange

 Monkeys dancing in a cage

 But what the hell

 Hello cruel world

 

 Venus demilo grew an arm

 And old macdonald bought the farm

 Say goodbye

 Hello cruel world
