Beautiful World Lyrics


My, my, my it's a beautiful world
i like swimming in the sea
i like to go out beyond the white breakers
where a man can still be free (or a woman if you are one)
i like swimming in the seamy, my, my it's a beautiful world
i like drinking Irish tea
with a little bit of Lapsang Souchong
i like making my own teamy, my, my it's a beautiful world
i like driving in my car
roll the top down, sometimes i travel quite far
travel to the ocean and stare up at the stars
i like driving in my carall around is anger
automatic guns
death in large numbers
and no respect for women or our little ones
i tried talking to Jesus
but he just put me on hold
said he'd been swamped by calls this week

and he could not shake his coldand still this emptiness persists
perhaps this is as good as it gets
when you've given up the drink
and those nasty cigarettes
now i leave the party early, at least with no regrets
i watch the sun as it comes up, i watch it as it sets
yeah, this is as good as it getsmy, my, my it's a beautiful world
i like sleeping with Marie
she is one sexy girl full of mystery
says she doesn't love me
but she likes my company
for now that's good enough for memy, my, my it's a beautiful world
i like swimming in the sea
i like to go out beyond the white breakers
where a man can still be free (or a woman if you are one)
i like swimming in the sea
yeah

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
