Noël Coward - World Weary Lyrics

When I'm feeling weary and blue, I'm only too
Glad to be left alone
Dreaming of a place in the sun when day is done
Far from a telephone

Hardly ever see the sky
Buildings seem to grow so high

Give me somewhere peaceful and grand where all the land
Slumbers in monotone

I'm world weary living in a great big town
I find it so dreary so dreary
Everything looks grey or brown
I want an ocean blue
Great big trees
Bird's eye view of the Pyrenees
I wanna watch the moon rise up
See the great red sun go down
Watching clouds go by through a windy sky fascinates me
But if i do it in the street every cop I meet simply hates me
Bc I'm World Weary World Weary
Tired of all these jumping jacks
I wanna get right back to nature and relax

I'm world weary living in a great big town
I find it so dreary, so dreary
I want a horse and plow, chickens too
Just one cow with a wistful moo
A country where the verb ""to work""
Becomes a most improper noun
I can hardly wait till i see the great open spaces
My loving friends will not be there I'm so sick of their darn fool faces
Because I'm world weary
I could kiss the railroad tracks
I wanna get right back to nature
Assume a horizontal stature
