The World Isn't Fair Lyrics - Randy Newman

When Karl Marx was a boy 

He took a hard look around 

He saw people were starving all over the place 

While others were painting the town (buh, buh, buh) 

The public spirited boy 

Became a public spirited man 

So he worked very hard and he read everything 

Until he came up with a plan 

 

There'll be no exploitation 

Of the worker or his kin 

No discrimination 'cause the color of your skin 

No more private property 

It would not be allowed 

No one could rise too high 

No one could sink too low 

Or go under completely like some we all know

If Marx were living today 

He'd be rolling around in his grave 

And if I had him here in my mansion on the hill 

I'd tell him a story t'would give his old heart a chill 

It's something that happened to me 

 

I'd say, Karl I recently stumbled 

Into a new family 

With two little children in school 

Where all little children should be 

I went to the orientation 

All the young mommies were there 

Karl, you never have seen such a glorious sight 

As these beautiful women arrayed for the night 

Just like countesses, empresses, movie stars and queens 

And they'd come there with men much like me 

Froggish men, unpleasant to see 

Were you to kiss one, Karl 

Nary a prince would there be 

 

Photos 

 

Oh Karl the world isn't fair 

It isn't and never will be 

They tried out your plan 

It brought misery instead 

If you'd seen how they worked it 

You'd be glad you were dead 

Just like I'm glad I'm living in the land of the free 

Where the rich just get richer 

And the poor you don't ever have to see 

It would depress us, Karl 

Because we care 

That the world still isn't fair
