Great Big White World

IN SPACE THE STARS ARE NO NEARER

THEY JUST GLITTER LIKE A MORGUE

AND I DREAMED I WAS A SPACEMAN

BURNED LIKE A MOTH IN A FLAME

AND OUR WORLD WAS SO FUCKING GONE

BUT I'M NOT ATTACHED TO YOU NOW

NOTHING HEALS AND NOTHING GROWS

BECAUSE IT'S A GREAT BIG WHITE WORLD

AND WE ARE DRAINED OF OUR COLORS

WE USED TO LOVE OURSELVES, WE USED TO LOVE ANOTHER

ALL MY STICHES ITCH

MY PRESCRIPTION'S LOW, I WISH YOU WERE QUEEN JUST FOR TODAY

IN A WORLD SO WHITE WHAT ELSE COULD I SAY?

AND HELL WAS SO COLD

ALL THE VASES ARE SO BROKEN

AND THE ROSES TEAR OUR HANDS ALL OPEN

MOTHER MARRY MISCARRY

AND WE PRAY JUST LIKE INSECTS

THE WORLD IS SO UGLY NOW

BECAUSE IT'S A GREAT BIG WHITE WORLD AND WE ARE DRAINED

OF OUR COLORS

(CHORUS REPEAT)
