Lyrics:

It's a Cruel, Cruel World

You haven't learned the meaning of regret
Because you haven't opened your eyes yet
And time is going just the right speed
Revealing everything that you need
And I'm not gonna disturb your trance

It's a cruel, cruel world
You'll know it soon enough
Oh yeah

Well time has dealt you an average hand
But you won't settle for nothing
You think he's gonna deal his cards again
Well maybe you're on to something
But I've been waiting and all I've learned

Is it's a cruel, cruel world
You'll know it soon enough
Oh yeah

You never looked behind your treasured dream
Is it hollow like a movie main street?
And if you did you better get on out of town
Maybe then you'll be free
But I'm not gonna point the way

It's a a cruel, cruel world
You'll know it soon enough
Oh yeah

Well you're innocent and so I do believe
You can do whatever you're dreaming
And I hope that you will blossom like a rose
With all your petals gleaming and
I know you will contradict that

It's a cruel, cruel world
You'll know it soon enough
Oh yeah
