Unfriendly World Lyrics - Singles - Iggy & The Stooges

An old movie magazine 

Gold wrapper in between 

Pages yellowing with time, 

It's tearing up my mind 

Plastic snowflake souvenir, 

A city far from here, 

But it hasn't moved in years, 

I'm breaking up inside 

[Chorus] 

Hang on to your girl, 

'Cause this is an unfriendly world 

Birthday cards from years ago 

These will kill you slow 

Is it worth this pain to grow? 

I guess I'll never know 

Christmas toys and picture frames, 

All the photos locked away, 

Not to live with day by day, 

Just a walk down memory lane 

[Chorus] 

Business men with nasty tricks 

Followers of 666, 

Fame and fortune made me sick 

And I can't get out 

Out the window there's a view 

Grassy hills and flowers too 

Lovers of the chosen few 

So maybe me and you 

An old movie magazine 

Gold wrapper it in between 

Pages yellowing like me 

Will I ever be free? 

[Chorus: x2]
