Intro
Bo Burnham]
Am D
Hey, kids
G G E/G#
Today, we're gonna learn about the world
[Verse 1: Bo Burnham]
Am D
The world that's around us
G
Is pretty amazing
G
But how does it work?
E/G#
It must be complicated
Am D G
The secret is the world can only work
G E/G#
When everything works together
[Verse 2: Bo Burnham]
Am D
D bee drinks from a flower
G
And leaves with its pollen
G
D squirrel in a tree
E/G# Am
Spreads the seeds that have fallen
D
Everything works together
G E/G# Am D
The biggest elephant, the littlest fly
G E/G# Am D
The gophers underground, the birds in the sky
D#/G# Em Gaug/Eb G/D Em6/C#
And every single cricket, every fish in the sea
C A D
Gives what they can and gets what they need
[Chorus: Bo Burnham]
G Em/C#
That is how the world works
C A/C# D
That is how the world works
G
From D to Zebra
B7 Em
To the worms in the dirt
C Gsus4/D
That's how it works
[Interlude 1: Bo Burnham & Socko]
G Bm/F#
Hey everyone
Em7
Look who stopped by to say hello
Bm/F#
It's Socko
G
Hey!
Bm/F#
Where you been, Socko?
Em7 Bm/F#
I've been where I always am when you're not wearing me on your hand
G Bm/F# Em7
In a frightening, liminal space between states of being
Bm/F#
Not quite dead, not quite alive
G Bm/F#
It's similar to a constant state of sleep paralysis
Em7 Bm/F#
Socko, we were just talking about the world and how it works
G Bm/F#
Boy, that sounds complicated!
Em7
Do you have anything you'd want to teach us about the world?
Bm/F# G
I wouldn't say anything that you probably haven't already said yourself
Bm/F#
I don't know about that, Socko
A D
How about you give it a try?
Alright!
[Verse 3: Socko]
Am D G
The simple narrative taught in every history class
G E/G# Am
Is demonstrably false and pedagogically classist
D G
Don't you know the world is built with blood?
G E/G#
And genocide and exploitation
Am D G
The global network of capital essentially functions
G E/G# Am
To separate the worker from the means of production
D G
And the FBI killed Martin Luther King
G E/G# Am D
Private property's inherently theft
G E/G# Am D
And neoliberal fascists are destroying the left
B/D# Em Gaug/Eb G/D Em6/C#
And every politician, every cop on the street
C A D
Protects the interests of the pedophilic corporate elite
[Chorus: Socko & Bo Burnham]
G Em/C#
That is how the world works
Really?
C A/C# D
That is how the world works
G B7 Em
Genocide, the Natives say you got to it first
C G/D
That's how it works
[Interlude 2: Bo Burnham & Socko]
G Bm/F#
That's pretty intense
Em
No shit
Bm/F#
What can I do to help?
G
Read a book or something, I don't know
Bm/F# Em7
Just don't burden me with the responsibility of educating you
Bm/F#
It's incredibly exhausting
G
I'm sorry, Socko
Bm/F# Em7
I was just trying to become a better person
Bm/F# G
Why do you rich fucking white people insist on seeing every
Bm/F# Em7 Bm/F#
socio-political conflict through the myopic lens of your own self-actualization?
G
This isn't about you
Bm/F# Em7
So either get with it, or get out of the fucking way
Watch your mouth, buddy
Bm/F# G
Remember who's on whose hand here
But that's what I--
Bm/F#
Have you not been fucking listening?
Em
We are entrenched in--
Alright, alright
Bm/F#
Wait, no please!
I don't wanna go back, please
G
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]
G Em/C#
That is how the world works
C A/C# D
That is how the world works
G
I hope you learned your lesson
B7 Em
I did and it hurt
C Gsus4/D
That's how it works
