I'm Not Asking For The World

I'm not asking for the world
But I'd like a little of it
Because I'm in the middle of it
I'm surrounded on all sides

I'm not asking for the world
But I'd like a little smidgen
Because I'm such a lowly pigeon
And I never get to fly

I won't be lighting a cigar
With a hundred dollar bill
I won't buy a fancy car
I don't need to make a killing

I'm not asking for the world
I'm not bent on domination
But I'd like a short vacation
I'm not asking for the world

I won't be saving ticket stubs
From M. Butterfly or La Boheme
I won't be joining any clubs
That would have me as a member

I'm not asking for the world
But I kind of like Milwaukee
It's enough to keep me happy
I'm not asking for the world

That's enough to keep me happy
I'm not asking for the world
That's enough to keep me happy
I'm not asking for the world
