Cruel

What you've got, you had to steal

That's the reason for how you feel, yeah

Considerin' what you've done so far

I'm rather amazed at where you are

Lift your head up, baby, pull yourself together

Nothing's worse than dyin' slow

There's no reason, darlin', reason whatsoever

That we can't end this game of touch and go

It's such a cruel world

When you have to think twice

And you're caught up in this roundabout

It's such a cruel world

When your back's against the wall

And there's no way out

You're not givin' it up, but you're givin' it out

Seems to me, you got a little too much doubt

Augmentation is what you need

Your generosity looks a lot like greed[Pre-Chorus 2]

You might call me crazy if you don't understand it

There's no way for you to know

You say love is hazy, and you don't demand it

Can't we end this game of touch and go?

It's such a cruel world

When nothing goes right

And the plans you made start fallin' 'round ya

It's such a cruel world

Well, just throw me the rope, babe

And pull me out, yeah

You've got that kind of love, flows like a fountain

But sometimes love can be unkind

My kind of love, you know, it's higher than a mountain

But love can be so hard to find

Lift your head up, baby, pull yourself together

Nothing's worse than dyin' slow

There's no reason, darlin', reason whatsoever

That we can't end this game of touch and go[Chorus]

It's such a cruel world

When you have to think twice

And you're caught up in this roundabout!

It's such a cruel world

When your back's against the wall

And there's no way out, yeah!

It's such a cruel world

Hey, hey! It's such a cruel world out there, baby

It's such a cruel world

It's such a cruel, cruel world

And there's no way out

Yeah-heah-heah!

Yahoo! Mhm...

[?] love, get you right

I'm gonna get you right

Oh, I see a-darkness in your future, baby

Oh, I - It's a tunnel, black as night

Oh, I see a rich man with his hand out, baby!

Oh, I know a seer with no sight

Oh, I watch that fire burn your bridges, baby!

Oh, I, I feel wrong turn into right

Oh, I - yeah!

Oh, I gimme understandin', baby

Oh, I - yahoo!
