you think you’re doing alright
you think you’re getting in tight
you think you’re doing real good
you think your livin’ is assured
and then pop goes the world
pop goes the world
pop goes the world
pop goes the world
you think you’re doing real nice
you think you’re doing it twice
you think you’ll figure it in
you think your number’s never running, out
and then pop goes the world
pop goes the world
pop goes the world
pop goes the world
you think you’ve got your three chords
you think you’ve got your three doors
you don’t know its all locked
it takes, when you get all shaken and shocked
say pop goes the world
pop goes the world
pop goes the world
pop goes the world
