World Of Shit

Eels · Souljacker [2001]

In this world of shit

Baby you are it

A little light that shines all over,

Must take over and see us through the night



Daddy was a troubled genius

Momma was a real good egg

Why don't we just get together

For whatever and see if it's all right.



I spent so many days

Just starrin' at the haze

I think that's a book

That I don't have to write again

And when I rise I shine,

I've got you on my mind

And the question isn't if

The question is merely when



Baby I confess

I am quite a mess

So let's get married and make some people

more than equal

In this world of shit

I will make a pledge

To get down off the ledge

You and I belong together

And forever

We will have our life.
