IT'S A BIG DUMB WORLD

Cross-dressin’ chimps on the TV show
Crooks in the clink and on the old Dow Jones
Spinnin’ nothin’ into gold
It’s a big dumb world


Crazy people on the radio
Who gave them the microphone
To masquerade their bull as gold?
It’s a big dumb world


Too many people on the telephone
Got more stuff that can’t be sold
Spinnin’ thin air into gold
It’s a big dumb world


I used to put up a fight
Now I just smile
Cuz I know it’s all right

Scully and Fox and the cig-smokin’ dude
I’m hooked by God, nothin’ I can do
You say it’s crap
I say it’s gold
It’s a big dumb world

Billion-dollar babies on the football field
CEOs with eight-figure deals
Sometimes I wonder if anything’s real
It’s a big dumb world
