Barclay James Harvest Lyrics for Song: Happy old world
 Lyrics for Album: Baby James Harvest / Once Again [2003]
 
 
 
 3189>Looking like something from out of space we came
 
 Nothing much to look at, but did he complain?
 
 He didn't mind us being here to live in peace and grace
 
 What we're doing to him now could put us back in space
 
 We're thinking like some creatures off the ocean floor
 
 Losing sight of what we've really come here for
 
 Can I be heard above the sounds of prejudice and hate?
 
 Take time to look around before it gets too late
 
 It's a happy old world
 
 Give and take a bit
 
 That's what you make of it
 
 A happy old world
 
 But I'm sorry to be leaving it
 
 It's a happy old world
 
 Give and take a bit
 
 That's what you make of it
 
 A happy old world
 
 But I guess I still, I still believe in it
 
 It's a happy old world
 
 
 
 We're tearing up the rivers and a thousand streams
 
 And highways, they're in places where they've never been
 
 We're building towers in the sky and racing for the sun
 
 Oh Lord, any eye can see what harm we've done
 
 I need some help to get myself out of this maze
 
 We can both just say goodbye and go our separate ways
 
 My mind's not on this song I sing, my heart's not in the lines
 
 Guess I'll go and kill myself, so would you kindly close the blinds
 
 
 
 Oh a happy old world
 
 Give and take a bit
 
 That's what you make of it
 
 A happy old world
 
 But I'm sorry to be leaving it
 
 It's a happy old world
 
 Give and take a bit
 
 That's what you make of it
 
 A happy old world
 
 But I guess, guess I still believe in it
 
 It's a happy old world
