How You See the World No. 2 lyrics

They put the world in a tin can

Black market contraband

And it hurt just a little bit

When they sliced and packaged it

In a long black trench coat

Two hands around the throat

Oh, you want to get it right sometimes

There's so much to be scared of

And not much to make sense of

How did the clowns ever get control?

Oh if you hear can you let me know?

How can they invade it

When it's so complicated?

Oh, you just want to get it right sometimes

You just want to get it right sometimes

That's how you see the world

How many times can you say

You can't believe what you heard

That's how you see the world

Don't you worry yourself

You're not gonna get hurt

And there's something missing

Seems like there's nobody listening

If you're running in a circle

How can you be too careful?

We don't wanna be rent trapped

We don't wanna be shrink-wrapped

Oh, we just want to get it right sometimes

We just want to get it right sometimes

That's how you see the world

How many times have you heard

But you can't believe a word?

That's how you see the world

Don't you worry yourself

'Cause nobody can hurt

That's how you see the world

That's how you see the world
