Lyrics

[Verse 1] Came down on a Monday Somewhere in the Midlands Tasted man, tasted flea Couldn't tell the difference Asked around on Tuesday Got nothing from a tree The guide had said, "What talks is red" That's all there is to see [Chorus] Who wants the world? Who wants the world? Who wants the world? Not me (Please allow me to re-) Not me (Arrange your face some) Not me (Times, I'd really) Not me (Like to get to know you better) [Verse 2] Looked around on Wednesday Took in all the sights The Promised Land they'd left to man Been ruined overnight Peering through the portholes With teardrops in their eyes The ship they took for one last look At Thursday's setting sunrise [Chorus] Who wants the world? Who wants the world? Who wants the world? Not me (Please allow me to re-) Not me (Arrange your face some) Not me (Times, I'd really) Not me (Like to get to know you better) [Instrumental breakdown] [Outro] Who wants the world? Who wants the world? Who wants the world? Who wants the world? Who wants the world? Who wants the world? Who wants the world? Who wants the world? Who wants the world? Who wants the world?
