World of Shit - Eels

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

Mama 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 starin' 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
