World’s Smallest Violin (Live from the Hollywood Bowl)

[Verse 1] My grandpa fought in World War II He was such a noble dude I can't even finish school Missed my mom and left too soon His dad was a fireman Who fought fires so violent I think I bored my therapist While playing him my violin [Pre-Chorus] (Oh my god) That's so insane (Oh my god) That's such a shame Next to them, my shit don't feel so grand But I can't help myself from feeling bad I kinda feel like two things can be sad (One, two, three, four) [Chorus] The world's smallest violin Really needs an audience So if I do not find somebody soon (That's right, that's right) I'll blow up into smithereens And spew my tiny symphony Just let me play my violin for you, you, you, you [Instrumental Break] [Verse 2] My grandpa fought in World War II And he was such a noble dude Man, I feel like such a fool I got so much left to prove All my friends have vaping friends They're so good at making friends I'm so scared of caving in Is that entertaining yet? [Pre-Chorus] (Oh my god) That's so insane (Oh my god) That's such a shame Next to them, my shit don't feel so grand But I can't help myself from feeling bad I kinda feel like two things can be sad (One, two, three, four) [Chorus] The world's smallest violin Really needs an audience So if I do not find somebody soon (That's right, that's right) I'll blow up into smithereens And spew my tiny symphony Just let me play my violin for you, you, you, you [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] Somewhere in the universe Somewhere someone's got it worse Wish that made it easier Wish I didn't feel the hurt [Chorus] The world's smallest violin Really needs an audience So if I do not find somebody soon [Outro] I'll blow up into smithereens And spew my tiny symphony All up and down a city street While tryna put my mind at ease Like finishing this melody This feels like a necessity So this could be the death of me Or maybe just a better me Now, come in with the timpanis And take a shot of Hennessy I know I'm not there mentally But you could be the remedy So let me play my violin for you
