Welcome to the cruel world

Hope you fine your way

Welcome to the cruel world

Hope you fine your way

It's a cruel world

Try to enjoy your stay



Yes it is a cruel world

When you're tryin' to get by

It's a cruel world

When you've seen the look in their eye

Makes life hard living

But I'm so scared to die



Welcome to the cruel world

Welcome

Welcome



Don't know how

We've lasted here so long

There must be more good than bad

Or we'd already be gone

And if you get up to heaven

Before I do

I'm gonna tell ya

It's gonna be cruel there too



You can't hide from this cruel world

Cause there is no place to run

You can't hide from the cruel world

There just is no place to run

It's been cruel from the beginning

It will be cruel when we're done



So when I'm gone

I will gladly say goodbye

When I am gone

I will gladly say goodbye

And if you want to feel me

Put your hands up to the sky



Welcome to the cruel world

Welcome

Welcome

Hope you find your way

Try to enjoy your stay
