I gave up looking for a reason
To live with things just the way they were
I came around, used to be easy to get to
So they, got to me in just about every way
There's no magic here, the golden rule is gone
Those dirty tricks are falling out the sleeves
You knocked me down, but don't know
I'm better on the ground, I got so
Many licks your kicks can't make me bleed
Can't stop the world
Can't stop the world
Can't stop the world
Why let it stop you
Why let it stop you
Why let it stop you
Can't stop the world
Can't stop the world
Your heart, your will, your car-
They've all been broken
You let everybody know about your better days
You got beat and it's not entertaining
Watching you try to stand up on your feet again
Can't stop the world
Can't stop the world
Can't stop the world
Why let it stop you
Why let it stop you
Why let it stop you
Can't stop the world
I gave up wondering the reasons
Surrendered to a future
That feels fine
Those things you said - so funny
Those things you did for money
Everything you wanted still is mine
Can't stop the world
Can't stop the world
Can't stop the world
Why let it stop you
Why let it stop you
Why let it stop you
Can't stop the world
Can't stop the world
Can't stop the world
Can't stop the word
