Big News In A Little World

[00:20.02] This flat I occupy
[00:22.75] Hasn't been this warm for weeks
[00:26.03] And as the colour returns to everywhere
[00:30.03] Apart from these pallid cheeks
[00:33.74] And as the cat around my ankles
[00:36.81] Its tail once more is curled
[00:40.50] It's big news in a little world
[00:50.42] And when the single hair, it germinates
[00:54.23] From the very end of nose
[00:57.63] I, the stricken carrier
[01:01.09] Are the only one who knows
[01:04.19] The direction of that crooked branch
[01:07.97] Always points and grows
[01:14.85] Is to the graveyard
[01:21.11] You see, big news these days
[01:24.83] Is headlines only when
[01:28.34] The traffic stops on London Bridge
[01:32.16] The clock hands on Big Ben
[01:35.19] Let the flag of the state of loneliness
[01:38.68] Be finally unfurled
[01:42.40] Folks, I bring you massive news
[01:45.70] In this little world
[01:51.40]
[02:01.27] I've never bought into creation
[02:04.64] And neither God above
[02:07.69] I've never picked the Good Book up
[02:11.20] But thank the Lord, I've found some love
[02:14.44] And as the cold wind of alienation
[02:17.61] Around my neck, it swirled
[02:21.67] Carrying big news in a little world
[02:31.80] I hadn't touched my molars
[02:35.07] With toothpaste for a week
[02:38.39] And the cold North Wind was howling
[02:41.95] It was piercing through my cheeks
[02:45.40] I was regretting every chocolate bar
[02:48.81] And cursing every sweet
[02:55.79] It was January
[03:02.51] You see, big news these days
[03:05.22] Is headlines only when
[03:09.21] The traffic stops on London Bridge
[03:13.13] The clock hands on Big Ben
[03:16.25] Let the flag of the state of Loneliness
[03:19.81] Be finally unfurled
[03:23.23] Folks, I bring you massive news
[03:26.73] In this little world
[03:32.86]
