Jehovah made this whole joint for you


Oo-oo

Aw!

A-haa-a

A-haa-a

 

Meet a girl I met Carolina

Her parents jumped off Niagara Falls

She broke her hips when she was a baby

Trying to hop the Berlin wall

 

It's not that she is anti-american

Althugh she shot a mayor at nine

He looked just like the prez on t.v

(My fellow americans)

Didn't know in '63 he had died

 

Does she think this world is all wrong

Does she think I'll rob her and run

When I ask her she gets her gun

And simply says 'Scat boy, scat, scat'

 

We're living in a wonderful world Carolina

Look at the birds in the sky

Jehovah made this whole joint for you Carolina

So isn't it wonderful to be alive

 

So original in her black lipstick

Listening to some obscure band

But isn't she pissed that all the other non-conformists

listen to that same obscure band

That's ok she's helping the environment

By sipping pure water and such

Then she screams 'We oughtta start thinking 'bout the ozone layer'

While tossing out a styrofoam cup

 

Does she think this world is all wrong

Does she think I'll rob her and run

When I ask her she gets her gun

And simply says 'Scat boy, scat, scat'

(That's right)

But isn't it a wonderful world Carolina

Look at the birds in the sky

Jehovah made this whole joint for you Carolina

So isn't it wonderful to be alive

 

Ooo-hoo

 

'The first step to a successful revolution

Is destroying all competing revolutionaries'

 

Real deep shit on her mind

'Let's kill the world

Take over everything'

She says

'We don't need politicians

They breed mistrust

And as a matter of fact did you just steal my, my purse, purse, purse?'

 

A-oo-oo

 

Isn't it a wonderful world Carolina

Look at the birds in the sky

Jehovah made this whole joint for you Carolina

So isn't it wonderful to be a..

 

Isn't a wonderful world Carolina

(Yeah)

Look at the birds in the sky

(My, my, my, my!)

Jehovah made this whole joint for you Carolina

So isn't it wonderful to be a..

Huh, isn't it beautiful to be a..

Isn't it wonderful to be alive

 

It's so wonderful I feel like crying

 

Crying

Crying

Crying

Crying

Crying

Dieing

Dieing!
