lyrics

MY BEAUTIFUL WORLD

linda went back home to berlin
so i call her "berlinda" for fun
i know i'll never see her again
as though she were never someone
i'll never be able to go there
but it's cool that there's someone i know there
i won't go – i will stay here
in my beautiful beautiful
beautiful beautiful world

every morning i'm awakened
by persistent percussive sound
of mexican men as they're building
the kondos-for-kids all around
despite all the years that i've spent here
it's the kids' world; i just pay rent here
i won't go – i will stay here
in my beautiful beautiful
beautiful beautiful world

talk to me about things
without letting a word in
that i'm refusing to try
my atrophied wings
became a burden
so i learned not to miss
being able to fly

someday i'd like to take my
life to its next proper stage
meanwhile i'm getting older
as everyone stays the same age
so many whom i've never met, there
but what would i do when i'd get there?
i won't go – i will stay here
in my beautiful beautiful
beautiful beautiful world
