Wonderful World

Lyrics

Ever since Chicken Little said The sky was fallin' down upon his head I told myself, what a wonderful world Climb a tree, headin' straight to the pond Catch some polly wogs before they turn to frogs I believe myself, what a wonderful world Puppy love are behind the law Before you know it it's a big old dog Left so suddenly, where's that wonderful world? Just a kid growin' up on a farm Hardly knew what was right from wrong It's a jungle in this wonderful world Ever since Johnny went to Nam He lost his mind when he lost his arm I convinced myself, it's an ugly old world But seein' school, I was just a kid Someone had to go and shoot the president He wasn't sleeping when he's going to bed So they said, so now he's dead Didn't know much but I knew it wasn't funny Everybody's crying like they killed the Easter bunny Nothing changes, never changes Killing in vain Tell me what it's coming to Tell me what well we ain't gonna do If it stays like this we'll have nothing left to lose Saw a picture and it ain't so pretty From the West Coast to New York City I've seen the world, it's such a pity We'll be here on our own Ever since Chicken Little said "Humpty Dumpty fell and broke his head" I told myself, what a wonderful world Ever since mom she reveal The tooth fairy nor Santa Claus is real May be so, mama, it's still a wonderful world That may be so, mama, still it's a wonderful world
