I'm doing this why??
1. They're not on the internet yet.
2. I ama fan of his work.
3. I enjoy sharing.
4. I'm sorta kinda game bored.
This wasn't my choice for my first song but it is the one I'm doing. I found out transcribing songs is fun but it's work too. Fun work. Hmm, oxymoron or what's missing in most peoples life?? I don't know.
I liked the middle east theme and felt it was topical in a weird way. That's why this one is first. It's not a favorite.
It's a Sorry World
You can go to war when you're eighteen but you can't buy a beer.
You can launch missiles from a submarine but you can't buy a pistol here.
You can breathe chemical weapons fumes but they don't want you to smoke
so when you're shooting up a bar in Baghdad, don't order a rum and coke.
You can have sex when you're seventeen you just can't have the cigarette.
You ain't old enough for a slot machine or to lay down a football bet
but they'll take you at the clinic if you're eighteen and your folks don't have to know
or you can take penicillin, just don't watch people getting nekkid on video.
You can be a governor at twenty one or a president at thirty five.
You can be the senator from South Carolina, if you can just stay alive.
They'll throw you in with sharks when you're twelve years old to teach you to scuba dive
but when you're ninety four and can't see anymore, they'll still let you drive.
Just don't get caught with no beer in your hand, if you just turned eighteen.
They don't mind you owning an acetyline torch and a gallon of gasoline.
You just can't buy smokes at the liquor store or y'all will both go to jail,
but they'll sell you the rope so you can hang yourselves while you're listening to Nine Inch Nails.
It's a sorry world. It's a sorry world. It's a sorry world where you can raise younguns but you can't smoke a Marlboro,
It's a sorry world, It's a sorry world. It's a sorry world when you're seventeen and you can't call a call girl.
It's a sorry world we're livin in is what it is.
