It`s A Different World Now Lyrics

It`s A Different World Now lyrics

To make the world a better place like dreamers often will

We left our bed of roses to push that rock up hill

The way we went about our task proved destined for to fail

Just who we thought we were .. don't ask .. there's no way you can tell



It's a different world now...to say the least

The sun comes up from in the west and sets down in the east

The stars are out there shining but where we can not say

It's a different world now like night and day



In the name of self defense we built bombs to prove a point

We'd drop them on our neighbors when their nose got out of joint

To sell the same hamburger rain forests had to go

" we don't need no air to breathe but just don't tell us no "



It's a different world now... without a doubt

Raindrops fall to heaven and the tides go rolling out

The rivers flow like powdered milk the wind blows with a wheeze

It's a different world now there are no trees



In life's rich beauty pageant we put children on a stage

Said flash your soft white belly child but just don't act your age

Sell sex like cotton candy to young and old alike

When you've outlived the fantasy then you can take a hike



It's a different world now... but what to do

We had our fifteen minutes and blew it right on cue

We used up mother nature like a twenty dollar whore

It's a different world now .... there ain't no more



I take a look around and I see ice caps in your eyes

Desert where the swamp should be neath cold black canvas skies

I take a look around and I see crossbones on a rose

How we let this come to be seems no one really knows
