When The World Is Running Down, You Make The Best Of What's Still Around Lyrics - Bring On The Night - Sting

Turn on my V.C.R., same one I've had for years 

James Brown on the Tammy show, 

Same tape I've had for years 

I sit in my old car, same one I've had for years 

Old battery's running down, it ran for years and years 

Turn on the radio, the static hurts my ears 

Tell me, where would I go? I ain't been out in years 

Turn on the stereo, it's played for years and years 

An Otis Redding song, it's all I own

When the world is running down 

You make the best of what's still around 

When the world is running down 

You make the best of what's still around 

Plug in my M.C.I, to excercise my brain 

Make records on my own, can't go out in the rain 

Pick up the telephone, I've listened here for years 

No one to talk to me, I've listened here for years 

When the world is running down 

You make the best of what's still around 

When the world is running down 

You make the best of what's still around 

When I feel lonely here, don't waste my time with tears 

I run 'Deep Throat' again, it ran for years and years 

Don't like the food I eat, the cans are running out 

Same food for years and years, I hate the food I eat

When the world is running down 

You make the best of what's still around 

When the world is running down 

You make the best of what's still around 

When the world is running down 

You make the best of what's still around 

When the world is running down 

You make the best of what's still around
