Rotten World Blues Lyrics - Eels

Hey, man 

(What?) 

Hey, man 

(What?) 

Hey, man 

(What?) 

Hey, man 

(What?) 

Dig this 

Well, I went walkin' out yesterday 

A man was carryin' a sign that says 

'The world is gonna end tomorrow' 

Hey, buddy, got a nickel I can borrow?

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

This rotten world's gonna chew you up 

Swallow you whole and then spit you back out 

Sooner you recognize this simple fact 

Then this rotten world gives you what you lack 

Ol' Miss Hedrick, she's gettin' down 

You don't see her much walkin' 'round town 

Well, you could say that she needs a little lovin' 

Looking for a light with her head in the oven 

This rotten world's gonna chew you up 

Swallow you whole and then spit you back out 

The sooner you recognize this simple fact 

Then this rotten world gives you what you lack, let's rock 

Miss Kovalov, she's lookin' good 

Walkin' her ass through the neighborhood 

She knows somethin' that you don't know 

Somethin' she learned about a long time ago
