It’s an interesting world that we’re living in
Please, won't you lend me an ear
Old folks are dying, babies are crying, young folks discovering beer, boys
Young folks discovering beer
It’s an interesting world that we’re living in
An interesting game that we play
Loving, hating, helping each other, and fighting to get our own way, boys
Fighting to get our own way
It’s an interesting world that we’re living in
A world with babies born blind
Mommas and dads weeping together, glad that their baby’s alive, boys
Glad that their baby’s alive
It’s an interesting world that we’re living in
It breaks my heart every day
Breaks it with hope, breaks it with pain, breaks it in the usual ways, boys
Breaks it in the usual ways
It’s an interesting world that we’re living in
Seasoned with dashes of love
Some say they’re rare, some say they’re everywhere, my girl says it’s enough, boys
My girl says it’s enough
It’s an interesting world that we’re living in
One I hope you stay in
I heard you were lonely, wrote you this song, I hope it helps you hang on, boy
I hope it helps you hang on
