Mark Oliver Everett - Hello Cruel World lyrics

Hello cruel world So this is you? A broken heart But with a view I'm looking out to face Another day The angry mob The happy ma** This birthday cake May be the last I'm looking out to find Another way [Chorus] Norman Rockwell colors fade All my favorite things have changed But what the hell Hello cruel world I though I heard An opera star Who had no home Under the stars She sang and sang And sang the night away And mother nature changed her name She doesn't want to play the game I don't believe she'll ever Be the same So big brother never came Howdy Doody gets the blame But what the hell Hello cruel world Bad and beautiful and strange Monkeys dancing in a cage But what the hell Hello cruel world Venus De Milo grew an arm And Old MacDonald bought the farm Say goodbye Hello cruel world [Chorus] Norman Rockwell colors fade All my favorite things have changed But what the hell Hello cruel world Bad and beautiful and strange Monkeys dancing in a cage But what the hell Hello cruel world Say goodbye Hello cruel world But what the hell Hello cruel world Hello, Hello Hello cruel world
