...THE WORLD ISN'T FAIR... by Randy Newman --------------------------................
*from 'Bad Love' (1999)*
Verse 1:
DmAmBbFC7F When Karl Marx were a boy, he took a hard look a-round; Am7b5 D7GmGm/D He saw people were starving all over the place, C7CaugF While others were painting the town.
Verse 2:
FGm7FF/C C7F The public spirited boy, became a public spirited man. DmAmBbF/A So he worked very hard, and he read every-thing, G7C Un-til he came up with a plan.
Bridge 1:
FA7DmDmF7 Bdim7 There'll be no exploi-tation, of the worker or his kin. DmA7DmBbEA7 No dis-crimi-nation, 'cos the colour of your skin.
Dm Bbdim7 Bdim7 Abdim7 Adim7 Gbdim7 C7 No more private proper-ty; it would not be allo-wed. DbF No one could rise too high, no once could sink too low, FBbG7C Or go under com-pletely, like some we all know.
Verse 3:
FGm7FFC7F If Marx were living to-day, he'd be rolling a-round in his grave.
DmAmBbF/A And if I had him here, in my mansion on the hill, DmAmBbF/A I'd tell him a story; t'would give his old heart a chill. G7C It's something that happened to me.
Break:
AbBFAbBF I'd say, Karl I recently stumbled, into a new fami-ly. DbEBbDbG7C With two little children in school, where all little children should be. AbBFAbBF I went to the orien-tation; all the young mommies were there.
Verse 4:
DmAmBbF/A Karl, you never have seen such a glorious sight, DmAm/CBbF As these beautiful women, ar-rayed for the night.
DbAbBbm/FF/C Just like Countesses, Empresses, movie stars and queens. G7C And they'd come there with with men much like me; FCBbC Froggish men, un-pleasant to see. DbBbC7F Were you to kiss one, Karl; merry a prince would there be.
Chorus 1:
DmBb7FBbEF See Karl, the world isn't fair; it isn't and never will be.
Gm7FBbF They tried out your plan; it brought misery in-stead. Gm7FBbF If you'd seen how they worked it, you'd be glad you were dead. BbFBbF Just like I'm glad I'm living in the land of the free, BbF/CBbA7Dm Where the rich just get richer, and the poor you don't ever have to see.
GdimF/C It would de-press us, Karl, because we care... FdimC7F That the world, still isn't... fair.
