Tell me baby
Why you’re feeling lonely
The worlds out there but
You don’t seem to notice
Bubblegum seats
Crying on the subway
We sit and hold hands
Driving into sunday

People talk but
They don’t ever listen
Thought you caught me
Gazing in the distance
Cat’s in the cradle
My mind just left the table
Words lose contrast
I’m bored with staring contests

Yeah it’s a big bad world
And you’re my favorite girl
I thought I needed the world
But I just need my girl

Sleep talk, wake up
Life is only starting
Plants to water
Triumphs in your garden
Grass gets greener
Baby when you’re with me
Let's never act our age
And die pretty

Yeah it’s a big bad world
And you’re my favorite girl
I thought I needed the world
But I just need my girl

Yeah it’s a big bad world
And you’re my favorite girl
I thought I needed the world
But I just need my girl
