We're so lucky we're the lucky one's We're so good to us We tried to rule the world with benevolence But we couldn't win their trust I read the news today I can't conceive of so much pain I read the news a little too long But I never let it get me down We will get what we're entitled to We can't ask for more We tried to prove our wisdom to the world But they wouldn't wish upon our star I read the news today I can't conceive of so much pain I read the news a little too long But I never let it get me down Ooh Turn your face from the setting sun It will rise again And kingdom come that all our prayers will be answered But I haven't seen that yet I read the news today I can't conceive of so much pain I read the news a little too much But I never let it get me down
