The World Is A Mess

Phil Vassar


Bye, Bye, 
life goes by. 

Well I go to work, 
my boss is a jerk. 
I try my best, 
but my feelings get hurt. 

They treat me like dirt. 
The only thing worse, 
is I need the money honey. 

And I, I look at the news, 
a river of blues. 
I'm so confused, 
and I'm starting to sink. 
I can't even think. 
Yeah lets have a drink, 
and turn up the radio baby! 

The world is a mess I feel like dancing. 
Forget all about our cares for a while. 
The world is a mess I feel like dancing, 
for a little while. 

Yeah that's right. 

We'll pull down the shades. 
We've got it made.
Forget all our troubles,
The bills will get paid.

We've got a date, 
and doomsday can wait. 
And I'm tired of thinkin' about it.

The world is a mess I feel like dancing. 
Forget all about our cares for a while. 
The world is a mess I feel like dancing, 
for a little while. 

The world is a mess I feel like singing. 
Sing and be loud at the top of my voice.
The world is a mess I feel like singing, 
High above the noise. 

This is the question, 
and this is the answer. 
I wish that I could be some fancy dancer. 
I may never see you again, 
and thats the way life goes. 

But time's a mighty river, 
and you can't stop the way it flows, 
but if i never see you again baby I love you, 
yeah and I just wanted you to know. 

Yes I just wanted you to know, 
I just wanted you to know, 
that I love you. 
And I just wanted you to know. 

Bye, Bye, 
Life goes by.
