[ Featuring St John Cowcher ]
The sun comes up
Another day
The sun goes down
The world is grey
The streets are dead
Past six o'clock
The houses all
From the same stock
The world is grey, the world is grey out here in the suburbs the world is grey
A cool blue glow
From every room
Bought this whole house
In the mining boom
Your Four Wheel Drive
Your trophy wife
Your 5-day week
That's your whole life
The world is grey
It'll never change
You fill your life with things
You're still bound by chains
The world is grey, the world is grey out here in the suburbs the world is grey
Well I'm the same as you
I'm just getting by
Living day by day
Until the day I die
The world is grey, the world is grey out here in the suburbs the world is grey
We all commute
Spend our lives in lines
That's the truth of it
We're wasting half our time
This vast suburban sprawl
It's just not what it seems
Yet we still opt into
This Australian dream
The world is grey
And I'm part of that
It's the life I know
And I can't take it back
The world is grey, the world is grey out here in the suburbs the world is grey
