Lyrics

[Intro]

Is this the real life?

Is this just fantasy?

Caught in a landslide

No escape from reality

Open your eyes

Look up to the skies and see

I'm just a poor boy (Ooh, poor)

I need no sympathy (Boy)

Because I'm easy come, easy go

Little high, little low

Any way the wind blows

Doesn't really matter to me

To me

[Verse 1]

Mama

Just killed a man

Put a gun against his head

Pulled my trigger, now he's dead

Mama

Life had just begun

But now I've gone and thrown it all away

[Chorus]

Mama, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Didn't mean to make you cry

If I'm not back again this time tomorrow

Carry on, carry on

As if nothing really matters

[Verse 2]

Too late

My time has come

Sends shivers down my spine

Body's aching all the time

Goodbye, everybody

I've got to go

Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth

[Chorus]

Mama, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (Any way the wind blows)

I don't wanna die

I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all

[Verse 3]

I see a little silhouetto of a man

Scaramouche, Scaramouche, will you do the Fandango?

Thunderbolt and lightning

Very, very frightening me

Galileo (Galileo)

Galileo (Galileo)

Galileo, Figaro

Magnifico (Oh, oh, oh, oh)

[Verse 4]

I'm just a poor boy, nobody loves me

He's just a poor boy from a poor family

Spare him his life from this monstrosity

[Verse 5]

Easy come, easy go, will you let me go?

Bismillah! No

We will not let you go (Let him go)

Bismillah! We will not let you go (Let him go)

Bismillah! We will not let you go (Let me go)

Will not let you go (Let me go)

Never, never, never, never let me go

No, no, no, no, no, no, no

Oh, mama mia, mama mia

Mama mia, let me go

Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me

For me

For me

[Verse 6]

So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye?

So you think you can love me and leave me to die?

Oh, baby

Can't do this to me, baby

Just gotta get out

Just gotta get right outta here

[Bridge]

Ooh, yeah

Ooh, yeah

[Verse 7]

Nothing really matters

Anyone can see

Nothing really matters

Nothing really matters

To me

[Outro]

Any way the wind blows
