This Is Not the End of the World
[Verse 1]
Well let's get one thing straight before I lose my place
Oh baby, yes I love your conversation, not just your face
You got my undivided sympathy and all of my time
And though I promised you an answer
Truth's no real friend of mine

[Verse 2]
I never did get the meaning of reality checks
I dreamed my way out of the bedroom with no time to reflect
Oh you could cut me and I wouldn't bleed
I'm not even sure
If you could say I was what you would call a man anymore
You always throw your hands up like some good little girl
Come on baby this is not the end of the world

[Chorus]
Come on baby this is not the end of the world
Come on baby this is not the end of the world
Come on baby this is not the end of the world
Come on baby this is not the end of the world

[Verse 3]
There was a cold wet reality that you couldn't take
You never made a single friend or a dishonest mistake
You were a Halloween denier of the second degree
And that says more about your mother than it does about me
[Verse 4]
Cause I was always at your heels
I was there with a grin
When you were crawling through the backstreets
Of the lies and the sin
I was the poster boy for nothing and no slick candidate
I would have swept you off your feet but I got lost in your gate
You never trusted anything that staggered and swirled
Come on baby this is not the end of the world

[Chorus]
Come on baby this is not the end of the world
Come on baby this is not the end of the world
Come on baby this is not the end of the world
Come on baby this is not the end of the world

[Verse 5]
You never had a reason you were hopelessly lost
You never kept the names of all the people you crossed
You always had my sympathy whenever you died
But all I could deliver was a headache to the bride
You always throw your hands up like some good little girl
Come on baby this is not the end of the world

[Chorus]
Come on baby this is not the end of the world
Come on baby this is not the end of the world
Come on baby this is not the end of the world
Come on baby this is not the end of the world
