So tired of feeling blue
Such a heavy weight on you
So shake it off and make your way
to somewhere different, to somewhere different
Oh no,
now you're leaving me oh what will you do?
All alone in the big bad world but I'm not worried, no...

'Cause you're gonna skip along
Quite merrily baby,
you're gonna revel in hating what's going on
And you're like a sugar bomb
And no harm will come, no harm will come
if you just skip along.

Acting oblivious
Comes natural to us
Keep smiling knowing all the while
the world will fall apart, the world will fall apart

'Cause you're gonna skip along
Quite merrily baby,
you're gonna revel in hating what's going on
And you're like a sugar bomb
And no harm will come, no harm will come
if you just skip along.

Wouldn't it be lovely to be home, home
Safe and sound with no one round to bring us down
But that's so far away...
