I Saved The World Today

Eurythmics · Boxed [2005]

Monday finds you like a bomb

It's been left ticking there too long

You're bleeding

Some days there's nothing left to learn

From the point of no return

You're leaving



Hey hey I saved the world today

Everybody's happy now

The bad things gone away

And everybody happy now

The good thing's here to stay

Please let it stay



There's a millions mouths to feed

But I've got everything I need

I'm breathing

And there hurting thing inside

But I've got everything to hide

I'm grieving



Hey hey I saved the world today

Everybody's happy now

The bad things gone away

And everybody happy now

The good thing's here to stay

Please let it stay



Doo doo doo doo doo the good thing



Hey hey I saved the world today

Everybody's happy now

The bad things gone away

And everybody happy now

The good thing's here to stay

Please let it stay

Everybody's happy now
