Lyrics Oh What a World - Rufus Wainwright

Men reading fashion magazines
Oh, what a world it seems we live in
Straight men
Oh, what a world we live in

Why am I always on a plane or a fast train?
Oh, what a world my parents gave me
Always traveling, but not in love

Still, I think I'm doing fine
Wouldn't it be a lovely headline
"Life Is Beautiful" on The New York Times?

Men reading fashion magazines (men reading fashion magazines)
Oh, what a world it seems we live in
Straight men
Oh, what a world we live in

Why am I always on a plane or a fast train?
Oh, what a world my parents gave me
Always (always) traveling, but not in love

Still, I think I'm doing fine (I'm doing fine)
Wouldn't it be a lovely headline
"Life Is Beautiful" on The New York Times?

Oh, what a world we live in

Why am I always on a plane or a fast train?
Oh, what a world my parents gave me
Always traveling, but not in love

Still, I think I'm doing fine (I'm doing fine)
Wouldn't it be a lovely headline
"Life Is Beautiful"?
