The Lyrics

WHAT A GOD-AWFUL WORLD

We hear news each day, most of it bad,
Why I still listen, it just makes me sad,
And I think to myself,
What a God-awful world.

With the war in Ukraine, Middle East too,
Then there’s Kim Jong Un, and what will he do?
And I think to myself,
What a God-awful world.

The climate here in England
Is everyday a pain.
I’m talking of the politics
And not about the rain!
I feel numb to the core,
Wishing I was elsewhere,
But then where do I go?
It’s not fair.

I feel utterly lost,
And all alone,
Nobody listens,
I’m on my own,
And I think to myself,
What a God-awful world,
Yes,
I think to myself,
What a God-awful world.
Oh yeah….

If you think things are bad now, just wait: I hear some in your governments are already talking about reintroducing you Euro-peons to the age-old concept of conscription; because drafting a lot of cannon fodder for a desperate last stand is what WINNERS do (like, y'know, Ukraine is doing).
