Momus - Friendly World lyrics
[Momus - Friendly World lyrics]
To an earth windy with winter winds
You came naked as a child begins
You lay freezing, not owning anything
And a woman wrapped you in a nappy
No one's angry, just oblivious
You are unknown in the busyness
No one sends a limousine for you
But a man does take you by the hand
This world doesn't owe you anything
No one stops you from leaving
Did you manage to, like the children do
Get someone to weep along beside you?
From an earth windy with wintry winds
Staggering, wounded by scars and sins
Nearly everyone
Nearly everyone who lived has
Loved this world
When they chucked some clods
Of earth upon them
You came naked as a child begins
You lay freezing, not owning anything
And a woman wrapped you in a nappy
No one's angry, just oblivious
You are unknown in the busyness
No one sends a limousine for you
But a man does take you by the hand
This world doesn't owe you anything
No one stops you from leaving
Did you manage to, like the children do
Get someone to weep along beside you?
From an earth windy with wintry winds
Staggering, wounded by scars and sins
Nearly everyone
Nearly everyone who lived has
Loved this world
When they chucked some clods
Of earth upon them
