A little bitter
  A little sweet
  That's how I like my life to be
  I'll take it neat
  Bitter sweet
  That's how I see the world
  
  I like the rain
  I like the dark
  I like the mornings in the park
  The summer heat
  Bitter sweet
  That's how I see the world
  
  Oh let's go
  Let's go
  To paradise, Jack
  Paradise, Jack
  Let's go
  Let's go
  To paradise, Jack
  Paradise, Jack
  
  I got the sorrow
  I got the smile
  I got a box under the stars
  Shoes on my feet
  Bitter sweet
  That's how I see the world.
  
  I got the joke
  I got the twist
  I got a lazy afternoon
  I'm a man over the moon
  Man of the world
  
  Oh let's go
  Let's go
  To paradise, Jack
  Paradise, Jack
  Let's go
  Let's go
  To paradise, Jack
  Paradise, Jack
  
  Chain me to a tree
  Watch me
  I'll set myself free
  Escape from situations
  Houdini would be proud of me
  I'll lie around like Byron
  And write verses to the moon
  I'm the crime and I'm the siren
  I'm a fighter in the ring of life
  
  I've got the medals
  I've got the scars
  I've got a pocket full of hope
  I got the beat
  Bitter sweet
  That's how I see the world
  
  And the moon is in my head
  The moon is in my head
  The moon is in my head
