How will we stay on the sidewalk   When there is no gravity?   Piece of paper floating upwards   But no one stops to see      And you think that I'm the right one   'Cause I know just what to say   And you ask me to convince you   That you won't blow away      In this wild wild world   In this wild wild world   In this wild wild world   By the river      Well we made them to be broken   Sorry if they let you down   Sorry if the ones you know   Are vanishing all over town      And I need someone to hold me   And I ask you to be fair   And you'd like to give me something   But we both know there ain't a lot, ain't a lot to spare      In this wild wild world   In this wild wild world   In this wild wild world   By the river      Oh are you listening   To make sure I'm still here?   Oh did you know, know   That the river burns like gasoline?      They can't turn on the rain machine   They tell me there is no more space   Won't you turn around   'Cause I hate it when I cannot see your face      In this wild wild world   Oh, in this wild wild world   In this wild wild world   By the river      Wild wild wild world   Wild world, yeah   Wild wild world   By the river
