Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The streets I used to walk on are full of broken glass
And everywhere I'm looking, there's memories of my past
The filthy flat in Fulham, the smell of sex and gas
I never ever really knew where I was sleeping next
[Chorus]
When the whole wide world's against you and you're standing in the rain
When all your friends have let you down and treat you with disdain
When the whole wide world's against you and life's got you on the run
You think the party's over, but it's only just, only just begun
[Verse 2]
Behind the bars of prison
You're never getting out
They're gonna break your balls in those slimy walls
The guards are lardy louts
The cameras that are watching you
They see a sullen face
Get me out the door, don't keep me in no more
I'm breaking down the gates
[Chorus]
When the whole wide world's against you and you're standing in the rain
You want someone beside you to pull you up again
When the whole wide world's against you and life's got you on the run
You think the party's over, but it's only just, only just begun
[Bridge]
Well, the dreary streets of London
They never promised much
A dead-end job to nowhere
And all your dreams are crushed
[Chorus]
When the whole wide world's against you and you're standing in the rain
When all your friends have let you down and treat you with disdain
And you think the party's over, it's only just begun
Let's raise a glass, get up and dance 'cause life's just hit and
Hit and
Hit and run
Hit and run
[Outro]
The party's over
The party's over
The party's over
The party's over
