lyrics

All the world is green, your heart is gold.
Don’t let it show for someone that you don’t know.
A crook would lose their teeth for the sugar you hold,
And this place, I’ve been told, has the most crooked roads.

I heard it from a friend, who heard it from a friend, who heard it from a friend so I should know.

All the world is green, and counted out.
And printed by figures that you don’t know about.
They would steal your tears to keep their bottles full
And sell it back as water, and you’d buy it all.

I heard it from a friend, who heard it from a friend, who heard it from a friend so I should know.

Every living thing is blessed with a chance to meet their end,
Or to turn around and run.

All the world is green, it cleans itself
And it always will, it don’t need your help
So don’t bother, just keep shoveling coal
If they tell you different, it’s because they’re on the payroll.

I heard it from a friend, who heard it from a friend, who heard it from a friend so I should know.

All the world is green, that’s what you’ve been told.
You’ve heard the stories, they’re getting old.
And someone’s knocking, but where’s the door?
And you hold the key, but what’s it for?

If all your gods were given a truth they’ll never show,
You’ll chase it to the grave and jump down in the hole.

I heard it from a friend, who heard it from a friend, who heard it from a friend so I should know.
