[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
The streets I used to walk on
~#**************#~
Are full of broken glass
~#**************#~
And everywhere Im looking
~#**************#~
Theres memories of my past
~#**************#~
The filthy flat in Fulham
~#**************#~
The smell of sex and gas
~#**************#~
I never ever really knew
~#**************#~
Where I was sleeping next
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
When the whole wide worlds against you
~#**************#~
And youre standing in the rain
~#**************#~
When all your friends have let you down
~#**************#~
And treat you with disdain
~#**************#~
When the whole wide worlds against you
~#**************#~
And thats got you on the run
~#**************#~
And you think the partys over
~#**************#~
But its only just, only just begun
~#**************#~
(Oh yeah)
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
Behind the bars of prison
~#**************#~
Youre never getting out
~#**************#~
They wanna break your balls in those slimy walls
~#**************#~
And the guards are lardy louts
~#**************#~
The cameras that are watching you
~#**************#~
They see a sullen face
~#**************#~
Get me out the door, cant keep me in no more
~#**************#~
Im breaking down the gates
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
When the whole wide worlds against you
~#**************#~
And youre standing in the rain
~#**************#~
And you want someone beside you
~#**************#~
To pull you up again
~#**************#~
When the whole wide worlds against you
~#**************#~
And lifes got you on the run
~#**************#~
And you think the partys over
~#**************#~
But its only just, only just begun
~#**************#~
[Guitar Solo]
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Well, the dreary streets of London
~#**************#~
They never promised much
~#**************#~
A dead-end job to nowhere
~#**************#~
And all your dreams are crushed
~#**************#~
When the whole wide worlds against you
~#**************#~
And youre standing in the rain
~#**************#~
When all your friends have let you down
~#**************#~
And treat you with disdain
~#**************#~
And you think the partys over
~#**************#~
But its only just begun
~#**************#~
Lets raise a glass, get up and dance
~#**************#~
‘Cause lifes just hit and, hit and, hit and run
~#**************#~
[Outro]
~#**************#~
Hit and run, yeah
~#**************#~
The partys over
~#**************#~
(Yeah)
~#**************#~
Worlds against you
