Crazy mixed up world

Now that youre old enough
And all grown now, trying to act so tough
Here comes a slap right in the face

Branding irons and cattle prods
Cowboys everywhere, ropes flyin through the air
Leaves some kind of funny aftertaste

And when the room gets small
And the streets are filled with fighting
Youll find a way to escape
Youll find a better place

Its a crazy mixed up world out there
Someones always got a gun and its all about money
You live with loneliness or you live with somebody
Whos crazy
Its just a crazy mixed up world

Jet fighters streak the air
And where theyre going nobody seems to care
I guess well just wait and watch em fade I dont think much about
The things I thought I just couldnt live without
I live without them everyday

And when you just cant handle
One more panhandler
It leaves you wishing for change
A fast car to take you away

Its a crazy mixed up world out there
Someones always got a gun and its all about money
You live with loneliness or you live with somebody
Whos crazy
Its just a crazy mixed up world

So take your shattered faith
And make it just like new with crazy glue and tape
Youre gonna need it again someday

Youre gonna need it again
Youre gonna need it today
