Intro
Bo Burnham]
Dm G
Hey, kids
C C A/C#
Today, we're gonna learn about the world
[Verse 1: Bo Burnham]
Dm G
The world that's around us
C
Is pretty amazing
C
But how does it work?
A/C#
It must be complicated
Dm G C
The secret is the world can only work
C A/C#
When everything works together
[Verse 2: Bo Burnham]
Dm G
G bee drinks from a flower
C
And leaves with its pollen
C
G squirrel in a tree
A/C# Dm
Spreads the seeds that have fallen
G
Everything works together
C A/C# Dm G
The biggest elephant, the littlest fly
C A/C# Dm G
The gophers underground, the birds in the sky
G#/C# Am Caug/Ab C/G Am6/F#
And every single cricket, every fish in the sea
F D G
Gives what they can and gets what they need
[Chorus: Bo Burnham]
C Am/F#
That is how the world works
F D/F# G
That is how the world works
C
From G to Zebra
E7 Am
To the worms in the dirt
F Csus4/G
That's how it works
[Interlude 1: Bo Burnham & Socko]
C Em/B
Hey everyone
Am7
Look who stopped by to say hello
Em/B
It's Socko
C
Hey!
Em/B
Where you been, Socko?
Am7 Em/B
I've been where I always am when you're not wearing me on your hand
C Em/B Am7
In a frightening, liminal space between states of being
Em/B
Not quite dead, not quite alive
C Em/B
It's similar to a constant state of sleep paralysis
Am7 Em/B
Socko, we were just talking about the world and how it works
C Em/B
Boy, that sounds complicated!
Am7
Do you have anything you'd want to teach us about the world?
Em/B C
I wouldn't say anything that you probably haven't already said yourself
Em/B
I don't know about that, Socko
D G
How about you give it a try?
Alright!
[Verse 3: Socko]
Dm G C
The simple narrative taught in every history class
C A/C# Dm
Is demonstrably false and pedagogically classist
G C
Don't you know the world is built with blood?
C A/C#
And genocide and exploitation
Dm G C
The global network of capital essentially functions
C A/C# Dm
To separate the worker from the means of production
G C
And the FBI killed Martin Luther King
C A/C# Dm G
Private property's inherently theft
C A/C# Dm G
And neoliberal fascists are destroying the left
E/G# Am Caug/Ab C/G Am6/F#
And every politician, every cop on the street
F D G
Protects the interests of the pedophilic corporate elite
[Chorus: Socko & Bo Burnham]
C Am/F#
That is how the world works
Really?
F D/F# G
That is how the world works
C E7 Am
Genocide, the Natives say you got to it first
F C/G
That's how it works
[Interlude 2: Bo Burnham & Socko]
C Em/B
That's pretty intense
Am
No shit
Em/B
What can I do to help?
C
Read a book or something, I don't know
Em/B Am7
Just don't burden me with the responsibility of educating you
Em/B
It's incredibly exhausting
C
I'm sorry, Socko
Em/B Am7
I was just trying to become a better person
Em/B C
Why do you rich fucking white people insist on seeing every
Em/B Am7 Em/B
socio-political conflict through the myopic lens of your own self-actualization?
C
This isn't about you
Em/B Am7
So either get with it, or get out of the fucking way
Watch your mouth, buddy
Em/B C
Remember who's on whose hand here
But that's what I--
Em/B
Have you not been fucking listening?
Am
We are entrenched in--
Alright, alright
Em/B
Wait, no please!
I don't wanna go back, please
C
I can't go, I can't go back
N.C.
Please, please, I'm sorry
Are you gonna behave yourself?
Yes
Yes, what?
Yes, sir
Look at me
Yes, sir
That's better
[Chorus: Bo Burnham, Socko & Both]
C Am/F#
That is how the world works
F D/F# G
That is how the world works
C
I hope you learned your lesson
E7 Am
I did and it hurt
F Csus4/G
That's how it works
