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