lyrics

You're a politically correct
Contextual junky
You think you're doing alright
Cause you got love for your country

But it's a cold cold world
And you got yourself a shade of grey

You count your blessings
I see you got a few
Made up of a match work of difference and point of view

But it's a cold cold world
And you got yourself a shade of grey

Maybe it's a sign
The end of the world is just a peace of mind
So you come and break off a piece of mind
The Holy Roman Empire state of mind

You think you're cool
Cause you don't follow the rules
Of the if's and's or but's of making yourself look cool

It's a cold cold world
And you got yourself a shade of grey

So let's mix up that red white and blue paint too
And paint a picture perfect version of me and you

It's a cold cold world
And you got yourself a shade of grey

Maybe it's a sign
The end of the world is just a peace of mind
So you come and break off a piece of mind
The Holy Roman Empire state of mind

Maybe she's on the run
And she's gonna come down and say hey-lo

It's a cold cold world
And you got yourself a shade of grey
