Sitting on the rack at the CVS

One more sad movie star divorce

Three hundred died in an airplane wreck

And you think of all the people suffering

And you bury that pain

But you can tell me everything

And we’ll ride on that wave

If I was king of the world

You’d be my girl

You wouldn’t have to shed one single tear

Unless you wanted to

‘Cause yeah I know what it’s like

If I was king of the world

Yeah, girl

We could ride a Greyhound all the way to the Galapagos

And stay for the rest of our lives

Dad hit you on the hand

Just for holding your chopsticks wrong

Then your Mom locked you in a shed

And Uncle Sam dropped an atom bomb

But you’re not alone

You can let it go

And just weep on my breast

And cover me with your tenderness

And that pain will pass

If I was king of the world

You’d be my girl

You wouldn’t have to shed one single tear

Unless you wanted to

‘Cause yeah I know what it’s like

If I was king of the world

Yeah, girl

We could ride a Greyhound all the way to the Galapagos

And stay for the rest of our lives

We are the small fish

We swim together

No Prozac or Valium

We’ll face tsunamis together

If I was king of the world

You’d be my girl

You wouldn’t have to shed one single tear

Unless you wanted to

‘Cause yeah I know what it’s like

If I was king of the world

Yeah, girl

We could ride a greyhound all the way to the Galapagos

And stay for the rest of our lives
