Noël Coward - World Weary Lyrics

The English playwright, actor, singer and songwriter
Noël Coward - World Weary Lyrics


This is the song from "This Year of Grace the musical".

When I'm feeling dreary and blue,
I'm only too glad to be left alone.
Dreaming of a place in the sun.
When day is done, far from a telephone;
Bustle and the weary crowd
Make me want to cry out loud.
Give me something peaceful and grand
Where all the land slumbers in monotone.

(Refrain:)
I'm world weary, world weary,
Living in a great big town,
I find it so dreary, so dreary.
Everything looks grey or brown,
I want an ocean blue, great big trees,
A bird’s-eye view of the Pyrenees,
I want to watch the moon rise up
And see the great red sun go down.

Watching clouds go by through
A wintry sky fascinates me
But if I do it in the street.
Every cop I meet simply hates me.

Because I’m world weary, world weary,
I could kiss the railroad tracks,
I want to get right back to nature and relax.

I want a horse and plough,
Chickens too.
Just one cow
With a wistful moo,

I can hardly wait
’Til I see the great open spaces,
My loving friends will not be there
I’m so sick of their God-damned faces.
Because I’m world weary, world weary.
Tired of all these jumping jacks,
I want to get right back to nature and relax.
