It's a Small World
Jump 5 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's about friends
It's about school
It's about changes
The ones you never thought they'd put you through
It's times like these that I got a touch of Irish in me
And we can talk honesty, but honestly
I'm OK this way, ya

[Chorus:]
Hey, ya just don't understand
Sometimes my sky's a little gray
And I know eventually I'll be feeling alright again, ya
Life's been a friend to me
And don't need to convince me
It's a beautiful world, I know
It's a beautiful world

It's about faith
It's about heart
It's about progress
The things that try to tear the world apart
My mind has to speak
'Cause I feel what I feel much too deep
But If It motivates me to do something good
And I'm OK, this way, ya

[Chorus]

Sunshine, beating down on my life
Maybe that's a long time away
But I guess I'll take it day by day
You ask when I'll get my smile back
Well I tell you
I can smile now
Though I know I'm down
And if you stay around it might just happen
Hey, ya just don't understand a thing
Sometimes my sky's a little gray
And I know eventually I'll be feeling alright again, ya
It's about you
It's about me
It's about trust
And all the things we feel but never see
I feel so much
Sometimes I'm a little out of touch
You can talk honesty
But honestly, I'm OK, this way

[Chorus]

Hey, It's a beautiful world
Sometimes my sky's a little gray
Life's been a friend to me
And don't need to convince me
It's a beautiful world, I know
It's a beautiful world

I love the fact that the person shouting for the dude to stop was about as ineffective as Gene Wilder's Willy Wonka's pleas to the kids in the Chocolate Factory.

"stop. don't. come back."
