Intro
Bo Burnham]
Bm E
Hey, kids
A A F#/A#
Today, we're gonna learn about the world
[Verse 1: Bo Burnham]
Bm E
The world that's around us
A
Is pretty amazing
A
But how does it work?
F#/A#
It must be complicated
Bm E A
The secret is the world can only work
A F#/A#
When everything works together
[Verse 2: Bo Burnham]
Bm E
E bee drinks from a flower
A
And leaves with its pollen
A
E squirrel in a tree
F#/A# Bm
Spreads the seeds that have fallen
E
Everything works together
A F#/A# Bm E
The biggest elephant, the littlest fly
A F#/A# Bm E
The gophers underground, the birds in the sky
F/A# F#m Aaug/F A/E F#m6/D#
And every single cricket, every fish in the sea
D B E
Gives what they can and gets what they need
[Chorus: Bo Burnham]
A F#m/D#
That is how the world works
D B/D# E
That is how the world works
A
From E to Zebra
C#7 F#m
To the worms in the dirt
D Asus4/E
That's how it works
[Interlude 1: Bo Burnham & Socko]
A C#m/G#
Hey everyone
F#m7
Look who stopped by to say hello
C#m/G#
It's Socko
A
Hey!
C#m/G#
Where you been, Socko?
F#m7 C#m/G#
I've been where I always am when you're not wearing me on your hand
A C#m/G# F#m7
In a frightening, liminal space between states of being
C#m/G#
Not quite dead, not quite alive
A C#m/G#
It's similar to a constant state of sleep paralysis
F#m7 C#m/G#
Socko, we were just talking about the world and how it works
A C#m/G#
Boy, that sounds complicated!
F#m7
Do you have anything you'd want to teach us about the world?
C#m/G# A
I wouldn't say anything that you probably haven't already said yourself
C#m/G#
I don't know about that, Socko
B E
How about you give it a try?
Alright!
[Verse 3: Socko]
Bm E A
The simple narrative taught in every history class
A F#/A# Bm
Is demonstrably false and pedagogically classist
E A
Don't you know the world is built with blood?
A F#/A#
And genocide and exploitation
Bm E A
The global network of capital essentially functions
A F#/A# Bm
To separate the worker from the means of production
E A
And the FBI killed Martin Luther King
A F#/A# Bm E
Private property's inherently theft
A F#/A# Bm E
And neoliberal fascists are destroying the left
C#/F F#m Aaug/F A/E F#m6/D#
And every politician, every cop on the street
D B E
Protects the interests of the pedophilic corporate elite
[Chorus: Socko & Bo Burnham]
A F#m/D#
That is how the world works
Really?
D B/D# E
That is how the world works
A C#7 F#m
Genocide, the Natives say you got to it first
D A/E
That's how it works
[Interlude 2: Bo Burnham & Socko]
A C#m/G#
That's pretty intense
F#m
No shit
C#m/G#
What can I do to help?
A
Read a book or something, I don't know
C#m/G# F#m7
Just don't burden me with the responsibility of educating you
C#m/G#
It's incredibly exhausting
A
I'm sorry, Socko
C#m/G# F#m7
I was just trying to become a better person
C#m/G# A
Why do you rich fucking white people insist on seeing every
C#m/G# F#m7 C#m/G#
socio-political conflict through the myopic lens of your own self-actualization?
A
This isn't about you
C#m/G# F#m7
So either get with it, or get out of the fucking way
Watch your mouth, buddy
C#m/G# A
Remember who's on whose hand here
But that's what I--
C#m/G#
Have you not been fucking listening?
F#m
We are entrenched in--
Alright, alright
C#m/G#
Wait, no please!
I don't wanna go back, please
A
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]
A F#m/D#
That is how the world works
D B/D# E
That is how the world works
A
I hope you learned your lesson
C#7 F#m
I did and it hurt
D Asus4/E
That's how it works
