Measure up what you think it's worth Lay it out on the naked earth For all the crows to see And do with as they please All the world's for sale All the world's for sale Come to find no one's innocent Cause every hand was dipping in Suspicion fills you up And overruns your cup All the world's for sale All the world's for sale Sell yourself or you're gonna lose Step right up to the golden noose And winter seals you in To start the game again All the world's for sale All the world's for sale Time will bleed away The regrets I have today Am I proud I couldn't say For the rain came down And disillusion clouds my way All the world's for sale All the world's for sale A promise soon to come Of profits to be won Will it ever be enough All the world's for sale
