World of Shit
John Parish, Mark Oliver Everett
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 alright
I spent so many days
Just staring at the haze
And I think that that's a book
That I don't have to write again
Now 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 love
