Artist/Band: The Police
Lyrics for Song: When The World Is Running Down, You Make The Best
Lyrics for Album: The 50 Greatest Songs [2009]



Turn on my VCR, same one I've had for years

James Brown on the T.A.M.I. show

Same tape I've had for years

I sit in my old car, same one I've had for years

Old battery's running down, it ran for years and years



Turn on the radio, the static hurts my ears

Tell me where would I go, I ain't been out in years

Turn on the stereo, it's played for years and years

An Otis Redding song, it's all I own



When the world is running down

You make the best of what's still around

When the world is running down

You make the best of what's still around



Plug in my M.C.I to exercise my brain

Make records on my own, can't go out in the rain

Pick up the telephone, I've listened here for years

No one to talk to me, I've listened here for years



When the world is running down

You make the best of what's still around

When the world is running down

You make the best of what's still around



When I feel lonely here, don't waste my time with tears

I run "Deep Throat" again, it ran for years and years

Don't like the food I eat, the cans are running out

Same food for years and years, I hate the food I eat



When the world is running down

You make the best of what's still around

When the world is running down

You make the best of what's still around

When the world is running down

You make the best of what's still around

When the world is running down

You make the best of what's still around



Turn on my VCR, same one I've had for years

James Brown on the T.A.M.I. show

Same tape I've had for years

I sit in my old car, same one I've had for years....
