When you can not cry as good people die
and the TV news says you've got nothing left to lose
cos your girl has gone and you've lost your job
and the nights are cold and you are starting  to get old

Go and see your friends
tell them everything
it won't make things right at all but
man oh man it could save your life cos

It's really not that bad
I look at the world and it hasn't ended yet
It's really not that bad
I look at the world and I see it's still spinning around and round

When you're called a fool in a crowded room
and you realize that they are all laughing at you
when you see your past in the looking glass
and you realize that they are moving on so fast

Put your music on
and just sing sing sing along
It won't change a thing at all but
man oh man it's so good to sing out

It's really not that bad
I look at the world and it hasn't ended yet
It's really not that bad
I look at the world and I see it's still spinning around and round
