Here come the cavalry
They rode a million miles to make a man of me
They'll figure out if I am God or chemistry
Which will it be, love?
Then in walks the matriarch
That cigarette is sexy in the dark
The demon dogs around her howl and bark
Then she turns and says to me
It's a big bad world
So you better find something to believe in
People gonna love
People gonna lie
People gonna leave ya
Entеr the concubine
She's got a dozеn dirty ways to be divine
She make the mischief and the molecules align
Static and wine, love
Then in walks the diplomat
He's got a belly full of grease and gristle fat
A wicked rabbit underneath his hat
And then he turns and says to me
It's a big bad world
So you better find something to believe in
People gonna love
People gonna lie
People gonna leave ya
It's a big bad world
So you better find something to believe in
People gonna run
People gonna hide
People gonna need ya
So draw and quarter me
I think I'd rather be
That kind of martyr, than barter a better part of me
Cause I'm quick with the wit
And I shoot from the hip
Keep them entertained
Ready, fire, aim
Listen
It's a big bad world
So you better find something to believe in
People gonna love
People gonna lie
People gonna leave ya
It's a big bad world
So you better find something to believe in
People gonna run
People gonna hide
People gonna need ya
Here come the cavalry
They rode a million miles to make a man of me
