[Intro]
---------------------
Em
Hey, kids
A D B7
Today, we're gonna learn about the world
[Verse 1]
---------------------
Em A D
The world that's around us is pretty amazing
B7 Em
But how does it work? It must be complicated
A D
The secret is: The world can only work
B7
When everything works together
Em A D
A bee drinks from a flower and leaves with its pollen
B7 Em
A squirrel in a tree spreads the seeds that have fallen
A
Everything works together
[Pre-Chorus (1)]
---------------------
D B7 Em A
The biggest elephant, the littlest fly
D B7 Em A
The gophers underground, the birds in the sky
A#dim7 Bm Daug/B Bm7 Bm6
And every single cricket, every fish in the sea
G E A
Gives what they can and gets what they need
[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
D Bm6
That is how the world works
G Em A
That is how the world works
D F#7 Bm
From "A" to "zebra" to the worms in the dirt
G A7sus4
That's how it works
[Bridge (1)]
---------------------
D Dmaj7 D6 Dmaj7
Hey, everyone, look who stopped by to say hello! It's Socko!
D
Hey!
Dmaj7
Where you been, Socko?
D6 Dmaj7 D
I've been where I always am when you're not wearing me on your hand: in a frightening,
Dmaj7 D6 Dmaj7 D
liminal space between states of being! Not quite dead, not quite alive! It's similar
Dmaj7
to a constant state of sleep paralysis
D6 Dmaj7
Socko, we were just talking about the world and how it works
D Dmaj7
Boy, that sounds complicated!
D6
Do you have anything you'd want to teach us about the world?
Dmaj7 D
I wouldn't say anything that you probably haven't already said yourself
Dmaj7 D6
I don't know about that, Socko. How about you give it a try?
Dmaj7
All right!
[Verse 2]
---------------------
Em A
The simple narrative taught in every history class
D B7 Em
Is demonstrably false and pedagogically classist
A D
Don't you know? The world is built with blood!
B7
And genocide! And exploitation!
Em A D
The global network of capital essentially functions
B7 Em
To separate the worker from the means of production
A D
And the FBI killed Martin Luther King
[Pre-Chorus (2)]
---------------------
B7 Em A
Private property's inherently theft
D B7 Em A
And neoliberal fascists are destroying the left
A#dim7 Bm Daug/B Bm7 Bm6
And every politician, every cop on the street
G E A
Protects the interests of the pedophilic corporate elite
[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
D Bm6
That is how the world works
Really?
G Em A
That is how the world works
D F#7 Bm
Genocide the Natives, say you got to it first
G A7sus4
That's how it works
[Bridge (2)]
---------------------
D
That's pretty intense
Dmaj7
No shit!
D6 Dmaj7
What can I do to help?
D Dmaj7 D6
Read a book or something, I don't know. Just don't burden me with the responsibility of
Dmaj7
educating you. It's incredibly exhausting!
D Dmaj7
I'm sorry, Socko. I was just trying to become a better person
D6 Dmaj7 D Dmaj7
Why do you rich fucking white people insist on seeing every sociopolitical
D6 Dmaj7 D
conflict through the myopic lens of your own selfactualization? This isn't about
Dmaj7 D6
you! So either get with it or get out of the fucking way!
Dmaj7 D
Watch your mouth, buddy. Remember who's on whose hand here
Dmaj7 D6
But that's what I've Have you not been fucking listening? We are entrenched in
Dmaj7 D Dmaj7
I... Wait, wait, wait! No, please! I don't wanna go back, please! I can't go I
can't go back! Please! Please. I'm sorry
Are you gonna behave yourself?
Yes
"Yes," what?
Yes, sir
Look at me
Yes, sir
That's better
[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
D Bm6 G
That is how the world works
Em A
That is how the world works
D
I hope you learned your lesson!
F#7 Bm
I did, and it hurt!
G A7sus4
That's how it works
[Outro]
