Whole Wide World (Live at Racket, NYC)
Yeah
The streets I used to walk on
Are full of broken glass
And everywhere I'm looking
Is memories of my past
The filthy flat in Fulham
The smell of sex and gas
I never, ever really knew
Where I was sleeping next
When the whole wide world's against you
And you're standing in the rain
When all your friends have let you down
And treat you with disdain
When the whole wide world's against you
Life's got you on the run
You think the party is over
But it's only just, only just begun
Behind the bars of prison
You're never gettin' out
They're gonna break your balls in those slimy walls
The guards are lady louts
The cameras that are watching you
They see your sullen face
Get me out the door, door can't keep me in no more
I'm breaking down the gates
When the whole wide world's against you
And you're standing in the rain
You want someone beside you
To pull you up again
When the whole wide world's against you
Life's got you on the run
You think the party is over
But it's only just, only just begun
When the dreary streets of London
They never promised much
A dead-end job to nowhere
And all your dreams are crushed
When the whole wide world's against you
And you're standing in the rain
When all your friends have let you down
And treat you with disdain
And you think the party's over
It's only just begun
Let's raise a glass, get up and dance
'Cause life's just hit and hit and
Hit-and-run
Hit-and-run
Hit-and-run
The party's over
Yes
The party's over
The party's over
The party's over
Come on
Thank you
Thank you, it's very kind of you
It's very kind, oh
The streets I used to walk on
Are full of broken glass
And everywhere I'm looking
Is memories of my past
The filthy flat in Fulham
The smell of sex and gas
I never, ever really knew
Where I was sleeping next
When the whole wide world's against you
And you're standing in the rain
When all your friends have let you down
And treat you with disdain
When the whole wide world's against you
Life's got you on the run
You think the party is over
But it's only just, only just begun
Behind the bars of prison
You're never gettin' out
They're gonna break your balls in those slimy walls
The guards are lady louts
The cameras that are watching you
They see your sullen face
Get me out the door, door can't keep me in no more
I'm breaking down the gates
When the whole wide world's against you
And you're standing in the rain
You want someone beside you
To pull you up again
When the whole wide world's against you
Life's got you on the run
You think the party is over
But it's only just, only just begun
When the dreary streets of London
They never promised much
A dead-end job to nowhere
And all your dreams are crushed
When the whole wide world's against you
And you're standing in the rain
When all your friends have let you down
And treat you with disdain
And you think the party's over
It's only just begun
Let's raise a glass, get up and dance
'Cause life's just hit and hit and
Hit-and-run
Hit-and-run
Hit-and-run
The party's over
Yes
The party's over
The party's over
The party's over
Come on
Thank you
Thank you, it's very kind of you
It's very kind, oh
