Dawson's Creek: World you want

Blinded by his Ratso Rizzo smile He's a carny man working the room He holds you like a circus monkey Broken-hearted, stole your money Play you like his personal fool You wanna tell him something Don't you dear? Give him a piece of your mind You think he cares Just before you go down, he'll whisper in your ear: The world you want ain't the world you're in It's a mean little planet, they let anybody in Get in line with all the suckers in the world The hero gets the bullet The villain gets the girl He won the office on a vote from your heart For the people and the average guy He sold you out so fast Got a taste for corporation cash Good old American pie You wanna tell him something Don't you dear? Give him a piece of your mind You think he cares Just before you go down, he'll whisper in your ear: The world you want ain't the world you're in It's a mean little planet, they let anybody in Get in line with all the suckers in the world The hero gets the bullet The villain gets the girl The world is a carnival town The midway is loaded with well-meaning rubes Blindly believing some big smiling Jesus Keeps track of the nice things you do But good deeds do not go unpunished Can't make all this safe from a man in the moon And don't you feel guilty at home Holding your breath for some truth of your own O Holy Father so beloved and adored Parish saint on his gilded throne When they caught him in the shower With the alter boy Your faith went sour Cant trust a man in a robe You wanna tell him something Don't you dear? Give him a piece of your mind You think he cares Just before you go down, he'll whisper in your ear: The world you want ain't the world you're in It's a mean little planet, they let anybody in Get in line with all the suckers in the world The hero gets the bullet The villain gets the girl The world you want ain't the world you're in (repeat till fade)
