I lost my job Its just my luck Reveal youve always been the actor G G With those puppy dog eyes Well one of yall is telling the truth The other one is lying Its someone elses fault so often G G Youre getting rude, youre getting tall Its a great big world your translations just a little off So what, I made a mistake to try to hiiide the tiny The tiniest lie gets a little bit larger everyday It grows, til its out of control Ive been giving my advice to others G G I try to tell them how to live A little lying, a bit of truth D Is what Id like for you to do and how to give And I really didnt need to suffer G G Still did it anyway What a great big world I better find some way to stay Guess what? youre getting old Still gotta grow up
