World in Which We Live

[Chorus]
It's getting smaller so they say
The world in which we live today
It’s getting small in every way
The world in which we live today
[Verse 1]
When the wind blows through Nepal
Strange but I don't feel it sting
When it burns in the Transvaal
Strange but I feel nothing
[Chorus]
It's getting smaller so they say
The world in which we live today
It’s getting small in every way
The world in which we live today
[Verse 2]
Strike the bells of Notre Dame
Strange but I don't hear them ring
Come the rains of Vietnam
Strange but I feel nothing
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Like a pearl
Lost in the interstellar dark
Spins the world
Aglow with an inner spark
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Boy and girl
Grateful they get to play a part
Seize the world
And then gently crush it to their hearts
[Chorus]
It's getting smaller so they say
The world in which we live today
It's getting small in every way
The world in which we live today
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Like a pearl
Lost in the interstellar night
Spins the world
Aglow with an inner light
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Boy and girl
Grateful we get to play a part
Seize the world
And then gently crush it to our hearts
[Chorus]
It's getting smaller so they say
The world in which we live today
It's getting small in every way
The world in which we live today
[Chorus]
It's getting smaller so they say
The world in which we live today
It's getting small in every way
The world in which we live today
