Beans On Toast – It's A Funny Old World lyrics
It's a funny old world
Doesn't time fly?
Sometimes you gotta laugh
Otherwise you're gonna cry
Sometimes you gotta whisper
Sometimes you gotta yell
Sometimes you just smile and say
It's a funny old world
She said live a little
Love a little
Laugh a lot
The world's still here
So far it hasn't stopped
It just keeps moving
And rolling on its axis
The moon is in focus
Orbiting around it
The moon affects the oceans
And the oceans makes the beaches
And once upon a time
We were all just fishes
And one day, one of them
Made it onto land
Slowly but surely
Turned into a man
Now here I am 3 billion years later
Waiting in the queue at my local Pret a Manger
Wondering, what on earth are the chances?
Marvelling, over the choice of pastries
The girl behind the counter
Asks if she can help
While I'm day-dreaming
About life itself
I said don't mind me
Help yourself
You've got to reach into your heart
And find a girl
Because in your soul
Lies the secret to the universe
She said do you want it
In small, medium, or large?
It's a funny old world
It's a rollercoaster ride
Smile for the camera
Keep your arms inside
Keep your eye on the horizon
Keep your feet on the ground
And keep on smiling cause
It's a funny old world
And where do you think we're gonna be
3 billion years from now
When the robots kill the humans
And continue to evolve
Artificial intelligence ventures into space
And survives a lot longer
Than this solar system does
They understand black holes
Space and time continuum
Computers that are cleverer
Than we could ever comprehend
They are alive
Invented by humans
But they invented their own language
And deemed us insignificant
3 billion years from now
We're 15 gig of memory
Sitting on a hard drive
In the arse-end of the galaxy
The girl behind the counter
Hands me my cup of tea
And I snap out of my futuristic fantasy
I ask if I can have
A splash of almond milk
You know me, I like to do my bit
It's a funny old world
It's a steak and kidney pie
Take the rough with the smooth
Y'gotta swallow every bite
Sometimes you get lonely
But don't stand in the cold
Come in, come on and smile and say
It's a funny old world
It's a funny old world
Doesn't time fly?
Sometimes you gotta laugh
Otherwise you're gonna cry
Sometimes you gotta whisper
Sometimes you gotta yell
Sometimes you just smile and say
It's a funny old world
Doesn't time fly?
Sometimes you gotta laugh
Otherwise you're gonna cry
Sometimes you gotta whisper
Sometimes you gotta yell
Sometimes you just smile and say
It's a funny old world
She said live a little
Love a little
Laugh a lot
The world's still here
So far it hasn't stopped
It just keeps moving
And rolling on its axis
The moon is in focus
Orbiting around it
The moon affects the oceans
And the oceans makes the beaches
And once upon a time
We were all just fishes
And one day, one of them
Made it onto land
Slowly but surely
Turned into a man
Now here I am 3 billion years later
Waiting in the queue at my local Pret a Manger
