The World Is Gonna Break Your Little Heart

When your young they fail to tell you
Just say that you're so smart
And you're so special
They take your heart and then they break it
And they take your skull, and then they shake it

But they're never gonna tell you from the start
That the world is gonna break your little heart

They never say the game is rigged
Just that the world's so small, and you're so big
You go and get a job, and you break your back
And you wish that they had told you that

But they're never gonna tell you from the start
Yes, the world is gonna break your little heart

And no-one wants to teach these classes
So they fit you up for rose coloured glasses
The ones you love don't have to love you back
And you can try so hard
But the chance is fat
You buy your land and pay your taxes
And no choice left but to join with the masses
And you don't want to be their soldier
If you don't believe it now, then come back when you're older

But they're never gonna tell you from start
Yes, the world is gonna break your little heart
They're never gonna tell you from the start
Yes, the world is gonna break your little heart
