Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's something wrong with the world today
I don't know what it is
Something's wrong with our eyes
We're seeing things in a different way
And God knows it ain't His
It sure ain't no surprise, yeah
[Chorus]
We're livin' on the edge
Livin' on the edge
Livin' on the edge
Livin' on the edge
[Verse 2]
There's something wrong with the world today
The light bulb's getting dim
There's meltdown in the sky
If you can judge a wise man
By the color of his skin
Then mister, you're a better man than I
[Chorus]
We're livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself from falling (Everybody, everybody)
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself at all (Everybody, everybody)
Livin' on the edge
You can't stop yourself from falling (Everybody, everybody)
Livin' on the edge
Everybody, everybody
[Bridge]
Tell me what you think about your situation
Complication, aggravation is getting to you, yeah
If Chicken Little tells you that the sky is falling
Even if it wasn't, would you still come crawling back again?
I bet you would, my friend
Again and again and again and again and again
[Bridge]
Tell me what you think about your situation
Complication, aggravation is getting to you, yeah
If Chicken Little tells you that the sky is falling
Even if it wasn't, would you still come crawling back again?
I bet you would, my friend
Again and again and again and again and
[Verse 3]
There's something right with the world today
And everybody knows it's wrong
But we can tell 'em no, or we could let it go
But I would rather be a-hangin' on
[Chorus]
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself from falling (Everybody, everybody)
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself at all (Everybody, everybody)
Livin' on the edge
You can't stop yourself from falling (Everybody, everybody)
Livin' on the edge
Everybody, everybody
[Chorus]
Livin' on the edge
Livin' on the edge
Livin' on the edge
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself from falling
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself at all
Livin' on the edge
You can't stop yourself from falling
Livin' on the edge
[Outro]
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself, you can't help yourself
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself at all
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself, you can't help yourself
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself, you can't help yourself
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself from falling
Livin' on the edge, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
