Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've got the world on a string
Sitting on a rainbow
Got the string around my finger
What a world, what a life, I'm in love
[Verse 2]
I've got a song that I sing
I can make the rain go
Any time I move my finger
Lucky me, can't you see, I'm in love
[Verse 3]
Life is a beautiful thing
As long as I hold the string
I'd be a silly so-and-so
If I should ever let go
[Verse 4]
I've got the world on a string
Sitting on a rainbow
Got the string around my finger
What a world, what a life, I'm in love
[Verse 5]
Life is a beautiful thing
As long as I hold the string
I'd be a silly so-and-so
If I should ever let go
[Verse 6]
I've got the world on a string
Sitting on a rainbow
Got the string around my finger
What a world, what a life, I'm in love
