Listen to poem:
It's a cold world new song version
It's a cold world
Intro and chorus
It's a cold world- it's a cold cold world
everywhere you turn, there's so much pain
You can pretend that it's all o.k
You can pretend that it's all o.k...
It's a cold world- such a cold cold world
everywhere you turn, there's so much pain
You can pretend that it's all o.k
that it's all o.k, yeah it's all o.k
Can't you see it-can't you see it?
That it's love that this world really needs
It's not too late- no, it's not too late
to help others in their time of need
to help others, yeah...but
Chorus
It's a cold world- it's a cold cold world
everywhere you turn, there's so much pain
You can pretend that it's all o.k
You can pretend that it's all o.k
It's a cold world- such a cold cold world
everywhere you turn, there's so much pain
You can pretend that it's all o.k
that it's all o.k, yeah it's all o.k
So you're o.k- yeah you're o.k...
you can't see their need, and just how they bleed
cause there's too much greed,
so you keep your eyes closed...
Show you care- yeah show you care
there's a big surprise- when you open your eyes
and see the truth of it all, yeah
the truth of it all...but
Chorus
It's a cold world- it's a cold cold world
everywhere you turn, there's so much pain
You can pretend that it's all ok
You can pretend that it's all ok
It's a cold world- such a cold cold world
everywhere you turn, there's so much pain
You can pretend that it's all ok
that it's all ok, yeah it's all ok
repeat chorus and fade
