I'm Looking (For A World) - Skeeter Davis

A paper pack of sugar

A plastic spoon and knife

A paper cup a paper plate

A different boy each night

I’m getting tired of a paper and a plastic world

One that’s not a lasting world

That’s how I feel

I’m looking for a silver and a crystal world

Not an artificial world

But one that’s real

Shiny plastic flowers

Electronic steeple chimes

Seem to be becoming the symbols of our times

I’m looking for a simple sandy suntan world

Not a handy sunlamp world

But one that is true

(I'm searching for)

The kind and honest joy that I’ll find in a boy like you
