Lyrics
[Verse 1]

The world of nature I know has

A face that’s filled with a smile

I wish it stays that way now

Once we run the full-length mile

I could go meet my good old friends

Who have had my back for a long, long time

But now they've all grown up, left me and

It's all a sad song

[Chorus]

We're stuck in a blue world

That's always a chore

We're stuck in a blue world

Different than before

We're stuck in a blue world

I feel all so new

We're stuck in a blue world

I cannot subdue

[Verse 2]

You are all I have now

Cos’ the others have all gone ‘way

But will it all last greatly

If all else falls and lay?

The monsters have a scary face and

I don’t know what to do now

Will you come and save us from this

Terrifying no-go show?

[Chorus]

We're stuck in a blue world

That's always a chore

We're stuck in a blue world

Different than before

We're stuck in a blue world

I feel all so new

We're stuck in a blue world

I cannot subdue

[Refrain]

Blue world

Blue world

Blue world

Blue world

Blue world

Blue world

Blue world

[Verse 3]

And now, here we are

The end of the line is here

For what could be seen as a

One time stress and fear

But don’t think it’s all that hopeless

I think that there’s a way

For us to see each other

In all of our days

[Chorus]

We're stuck in a blue world

That's always a chore

We're stuck in a blue world

Different than before

We're stuck in a blue world

I feel all so new

We're stuck in a blue world

I cannot subdue

We're stuck in a blue world

That's always a chore

We're stuck in a blue world

Different than before

We're stuck in a blue world

I feel all so new

We're stuck in a blue world

I cannot subdue

We're stuck in a blue world

We're stuck in a blue world

We're stuck in a blue world

We're stuck in a blue world
