When The World Is Running Down, You Make The Best

Words and music by Sting


Turn on my V.C.R.

Same one I've had for years

James Brown on the Tammy show

Same tape I've had for years

I sit in my old car

Same one I've had for years

Old battery's running down

It ran for years and years


Turn on the radio

The static hurts my ears

Tell me where would I go

I ain't been out in years

Turn on the stereo

It's played for years and years

An Otis Redding song

It's all I own


When the world is running down

You make the best of what's still around

When the world is running down

You make the best of what's still around


Plug in my M.C.I

To excercise my brain

Make records on my own

Can't go out in the rain

Pick up the telephone


I've listened here for years

No one to talk to me

I've listened here for years


When the world is running down

You make the best of what's still around

When the world is running down

You make the best of what's still around


When I feel lonely here

Don't waste my time with tears

I run 'Deep Throat' again

It ran for years and years

Don't like the food I eat

The cans are running out

Same food for years and years

I hate the food I eat


When the world is running down

You make the best of what's still around

When the world is running down

You make the best of what's still around


When the world is running down

You make the best of what's still around

When the world is running down

You make the best of what's still around


(Verse 1: Repeat fading)
