This is getting old now
I've been travelling for miles with my brother and my child
But I haven't found a droplet
When our home began to dry, it was just another sign
That I'm living in a Perfect World
Yeah I'm living in a Perfect World
This is getting old now (woah)
My bus won't leave in time, yeah my car just got a fine
And you know I can't afford it (woah)
Working late at night, no I hardly know the time
I'm not living in a Perfect World
Living in a Perfect World
Does it take a hurtful word to get it through your skull?
We're living inside a burning bubble we control
And I don't even know what's worse, ignore it or we run?
I don't wanna die inside this burning, hurtful, Perfect World
You're the big man in the blue suede shoes
Taking everything that you pick and choose, ah
You're paying for a Perfect World
A planet full of fire and smoke
Does it take a hurtful word to get it through your skull?
We're living inside a burning bubble we control
And I don't even know what's worse, ignore it or we run?
I don't wanna die inside this burning, hurtful, Perfect World
There are already people who are suffering from the preliminary effects of climate change
Whose homes are swept away by rising sea levels
These people don't have the privilege of forgetting about climate change
Because it affects them every day of their lives
Oh
Oh
We're living in a Perfect World
Living in a Perfect World
This is getting old now
I've been travelling for miles but I didn't say goodbye
To the people who were left there
I didn't get to say goodbye
