Lyrics

Hey-ey-ey-ey
Woah-oh-oh-oh
Hey-ey-ey-ey
Woah-oh
Slither, sinner, like a snake in the grass (Whoa-oh-oh-oh)
Wolf in sheep's clothing with words made of glass (Hey-ey-ey-ey)
Crept up upon me like a shadow on the wall (Whoa-oh-oh-oh)
Couldn't prepare me for how heavy I would fall
And I say, ooh girl, step on the scene (Whoa-oh)
Don't you know the world is so mean?
Ooh girl, caught in between (Whoa-oh)
Don't you know the grass ain't green?
Ooh girl, step on the scene (Whoa-oh)
Don't you know the world is so mean?
Ooh girl, caught in between (Whoa-oh)
Don't you know the grass ain't green?
Smoke and mirror, what a spell you have cast (Whoa-oh-oh-oh)
Cruel predictions have all come to pass (Hey-ey-ey-ey)
The earth is shaking and the sky is tumbling down (Tumbling down)
Shaking my tree till my leaves fall to the ground
And I said, fall to the ground, fall to the ground
Fall to the, fall to the, fall to the ground
And I say, ooh girl, step on the scene (Whoa-oh)
Don't you know the world is so mean?
Ooh girl, caught in between (Whoa-oh)
Don't you know the grass ain't green?
Ooh girl, step on the scene (Whoa-oh)
(Step on the scene)
Don't you know the world is so mean?
(World is so mean)
Ooh girl, caught in between (Whoa-oh)
Don't you know the grass ain't green?
Don't you know the world is so mean? (The world is so mean)
D-d-d-d-don't you know? (D-d-d-don't you know?) (Whoa-oh-oh-oh)
Don't you know the world is so mean? (The world is so mean) (Hey-ey-ey-ey)
D-d-d-d-don't you know? (Don't you know?)
D-d-d-d-don't you know? (Don't you know?)
D-d-d-d-don't you
D-d-d-d-don't you
D-d-d-d-don't you know?
I'mma look to the mountains, look to the mountains, look to the mountains
And I'mma take you to the sea
Look to the mountains, look to the mountains, look to the mountains
And I'mma take you to the sea
Look to the mountains (Step on the scene)
Look to the mountains (World is so mean)
Look to the mountains (Step on the scene)
And I'mma take you to the sea (World is so mean)
I'mma take you to the sea (World is so mean)
I'mma take you to the sea
