When The World Is Running Down Lyrics - Singles - The Police

Turn on my V.C.R. 

Same one I've had for years 

James Brown on the T. A. M. I. show 

Same tape I've had for years 

I sit in my old car 

Same one I've had for years 

Old battery's running down 

It ran for years and years 

Turn on the radio 

The static hurts my ears 

Tell me where would I go 

I ain't been out in years 

Turn on the stereo 

It's played for years and years 

An Otis Redding song 

It's all I own

When the world is running down 

You make the best of what's still around 

When the world is running down 

You make the best of what's still around 

Plug in my M.C.I 

To exercise my brain 

Make records on my own 

Can't go out in the rain 

Pick up the telephone 

I've listened here for years 

No one to talk to me 

I've listened here for years 

When the world is running down 

You make the best of what's still around 

When the world is running down 

You make the best of what's still around 

Photos 

When I feel lonely here 

Don't waste my time with tears 

I run 'Deep Throat' again 

It ran for years and years 

Don't like the food I eat 

The cans are running out 

Same food for years and years 

I hate the food I eat 

When the world is running down 

You make the best of what's still around 

When the world is running down 

You make the best of what's still around 

When the world is running down 

You make the best of what's still around 

When the world is running down 

You make the best of what's still around
