The World (As We Know It Today)

(album: Throwbacks - 2013)

iPods, cellphones, rap music, snow cones,
Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes, watching the old Rolling Stones
Paul Newman, James Dean, Marlon Brando
Steve McQueen, Marshal Mathers, Akon
And James Brown is going strong

Iraq War, Candie stores,
And Mr. Al Gore
Bono, DiCaprio
Better than the unknown
Darfur
Corners wall
Global warming
People stall
Bin Laden
Trade center
All the deaths
Do you remember?

The World
As we know it today [x2]

Chevy, Ford, Mustangs
Jaguar into Spain
America is in debt
You might get upset
Paul McCartney
Back again
That is such a blessing
Computers, iTunes
Albums by the soul
So, anyone can make a movie
Everyone just seems so stupid
Television
Rules the world

The minds of little boys and girls
All the people in Katrina
Need a place to live
Sigon wheels
Jamba Juice
And fricken
Kous Kous

The World
As we know it today [x4]

Techno, picture phones
Brand names, sticks and stones
Hip-Hop, China
Gangstas, Flo Rida
East Wood, Dr. Dre
Timberland's hayday
Lohan, Hilton, Richie
And Britney Spears
O.J. Simpson
Fighting off his demons
LA palm trees
New York taxis
The nukes in America
Cause hysteria
Charles Manson
Helter Skelter
We need a homeless shelter!

The World
As we know it today [x6]
