Wendell Thornhill - But That's The World That We Live In Lyrics

One day were going to die,
every day we live for what and why?
our end is coming soon,
and still we sin like its in bloom...

There is no time left to pray,
I barely got mine in just the other day...
I hope the Afterlifes filled with bliss,
I cant cope with another world like this...

With crime on the rise,
the Governments still telling lies,
where the innocent only dies...(yeah)

The old are getting older,
but cant even cry...on their familys shoulders,
their pension plans are even colder(yeah)

But Thats The World That We Live In
But Thats The World

We got babies having babies,
still got the men who like to beat the ladies,
abused the drug, now drugs abuse
refuse the tug, they say Why, youre going to lose?

Diseases are killing, the young and the old
prophecies warned us, yes we were told,
to change our ways or things would change
we better do what HE said, do you remember the rain?

I cant get a job, because of unemployment
and still have to fear nuclear deployment
the government they love that enjoyment(yeah)

We better bring the love and stop the hate...
thinking of...that its never too late,
Ive got a voice and a question for you
youve got a choice...so Whatcha gonna to do?

But Thats The World That We Live In
But Thats The World(listen)

Theres Global Warming,
theres Desert Storming,
theres innocent children porning
Illegitimate bornings,
we better heed the warnings,
or we wont live to see the morning...

Put down your crack,
to get your life back,
if you think youve got the knack
stop the carjacks,
its not a ride that you lack,
its the working-for-a-living you cant hack...

Is your life that bad,
is it really so sad,
that you cant be your kid's dad
hes going to grow up mad,
because YOU he never had,
now another problem to the world you add...

You better make a friend
in your GOD again,
so to the promise land, you HE will send...
for every day you sin,
for every law you bend
you grow closer to your end(yeah)

But Thats The World That We Live In
But Thats The World That We Live In(yeah)

But Thats The World That We Live In
But Thats The World That We Live In
