The World Comes Tumblin' Lyrics
Start a riot, slash your wrists red
You want an anwser?
Do you speak delinquently
Oh yeah?
Theres a message
Antagonist
You want an anwser?
I bet you killed someone
Oh yeah?
Come on
I beg you
My world comes tumblin' down
I paid the price
Heartache I'm not sorry
I fell in love with you in NYC
Uh uh
She ran away
Her mamma never loved her
Pill popping pitty
She is sick in Melbourne city
Oh no, oh yeah
Oh where are you gerti rouge
Come on I beg you
My world comes tumblin' down
Hey oh baby come on
And speak to me
Hey come on
Uh oh you are fucking bored
Are you
You are fucking bored
You're just bored
You want an anwser?
Do you speak delinquently
Oh yeah?
Theres a message
Antagonist
You want an anwser?
I bet you killed someone
Oh yeah?
Come on
I beg you
My world comes tumblin' down
I paid the price
Heartache I'm not sorry
I fell in love with you in NYC
Uh uh
She ran away
Her mamma never loved her
Pill popping pitty
She is sick in Melbourne city
Oh no, oh yeah
Oh where are you gerti rouge
Come on I beg you
My world comes tumblin' down
Hey oh baby come on
And speak to me
Hey come on
Uh oh you are fucking bored
Are you
You are fucking bored
You're just bored

Christ on a cracker I LOVE this song. :( Shame no one has signed it expressing their love to me, or the song. :P
I'm signing to express my love to "punk in drublic" because I love him so. Maybe not but that's okae too. This song rocks! I love the distillers.
This is hands down my favorite Distillers song. It's one of the first songs I learned on the guitar too. It just does not get better than this.
aww i love this song, it's great to sing along to:)... Brody drool
The song is obviously about Brody babes herself.
Bored in melbourne, where she grew up.
brody pretty much left home and everything after brody and her mum tried strangling eachother in the kitchen.
probably felt like her mum didnt love her.
This song is really kick ass.
I don't think it's about her it's about her friend Gerti Rouge who was abused by her father. The song Young Girl is about her too. Or I guess it could be about Brody and she's crying out for help to her friend...
good song. love the distillers
Gerti Rouge isn't actually mentioned in this song... These lyrics are incorrect. Unless there are different versions?
