Sweet Joy
Butterfly flaps its wings in Brazil,
Tornadoes in Texas.
Hold my hand, walking two by two,
Noah forgot us.
Protect us.

If you were the only girl in the world and I was the only boy,
The moon burnin' brighter than fire, stars falling from the sky,
If you were the only girl in the world and I was the only boy,
Walk down desperate avenues, sing a song, sing a song of sweet joy
Of sweet joy.

I'm the only you could ever reach.
You were the only one I ever told about hate,
Why the gate is closed,
Some people say the emperor's got no clothes.

Ray Ban Aviators on the presidents eye's
Wife's melanoma is twice the of Virginia.
If ya jumped in a river, got poisoned, they'd never forgive ya.

If you were the only girl in the world and I was the only boy
The moon burnin' brighter than fire, stars falling from the sky
If you were the only girl in the world and I was the only boy
Walk down desperate avenues, sing a song, sing a song of sweet joy

[Repeat: x3]
Such a sweet joy
Such a sweet joy

Did the sisters' ever tell you the story about turning water into wine?
Did you ever get the feeling that what you're fighting for ain't worth a dime?
And did you ever start believing the text 
You have been reading are Jean Baudrillard Simulacra

A testament to the power of oil, 
As the planet drowns in water and sulphur.

If you were the only girl in the world and I was the only boy
The moon burnin brighter than fire, stars falling from the sky
If you were the only girl in the world and I was the only boy
Walk down desperate avenues, sing a song, sing a song of sweet joy

[Repeat: x6]
If you were the only girl in the world
Such a sweet joy

And as we look across all we surveyed,
We say 'Hey, looks like we gotta build another day,
And one more on top of that'.
It took the lord 7, but I'll woop that cat, and I'll do it in three
You and me, Larry and the rest of the kids and the army of love.
We got a whole lot of shoveling to do,
So let's get on through.
Come on, babe.

2 minute's of silence
Rap riff.

If you were the only girl in the world
Such a sweet joy

I am the only girl in the world
I am the only boy
