The world is changing
The world is heating up
What the fuck is going on?

Rearranging
It's like everything happened all at once
Um, what the fuck is going on?

The people rising in the streets, the war, the drought
The more i look the more i see nothing to joke about

Is comedy over?
Should i leave you alone?
'cause, really who's gonna go for joking at a time like this?
Should i be joking at a time like this?

I wanna help to leave this world better than i found it
And i fear that comedy won't help, and the fear is not unfounded
Should i stop trying to be funny?
Should i give away my money? no
What do i do?

Healing the world with comedy
The indescribable power of your comedy
The world needs direction

From a white guy like me?

Who is healing the world with comedy?
That's it

The world is so fucked up
Systematic oppression
Income inequality
The other stuff
And there's only one thing i can do about it...
While being paid... and being the center of attention

Healing the world with comedy
Making a literal difference, metaphorically
A jew walks into a bar
And i've saved him a seat
That's healing the world with comedy

I'm a special kind of white guy
I self-reflected and i want to be an agent of change
So i am going to use my privilege for the good
(very cool, way to go!)

American white guys
We've had the floor for at least 400 years
So maybe i should just shut the fuck up
(silence)
I'm bored

I don't wanna do that
There's got to be another way
For me to help out without standing on the sidelines
Never!

The wait is over!
I'm white, and i'm here to save the day!
Lord help me channel sandra bullock in the blind side
Sandra bullock!

Healing the world with comedy!
Making a literal difference, metaphorically!

And yes, most likely they'll pay me
But i'd do it for free
I am healing the world with:
Comedy

Bo Burnham - Biography

Bo Burnham is an American comedian, singer-songwriter, musician, actor, poet, and Internet celebrity. Writing comedic and satirical songs with a politically incorrect slant, he achieved fame when his YouTube videos took off and received more than 70 million views by October 2010.

Currently, he has over 200 million views on his YouTube channel.

As of now, Bo has released 5 albums: Bo Fo Sho, Bo Burnham, Words Words Words, what., and Make Happy.

Bo Fo Sho was Burnham’s debut EP. The six-track comedy album was released on June 17, 2008 by Comedy Central Records, and charted well across the Billboard charts.

In a June 2008 interview with Wired Magazine, Burnham described himself as:

still a kid in his bedroom, writing songs and playing them

and that if Bo Fo Sho were anything else,

it would lose the whole DIY effect of how I started out.

Burnham co-created, co-wrote, co-produced, and starred in a TV series called Zach Stone Is Gonna Be Famous in 2013 for MTV, although it was cancelled after 12 episodes, running from May 2, 2013 to June 29, 2013.

His first book, Egghead: Or, You Can’t Survive on Ideas Alone, was first published on October 1, 2013, and is a collection of comedically absurd poetry and musings.

Another book, currently referred to as Untitled Burnham 1 of 1, is thought to be an autobiography with approximately 280 pages, which was set to be released September 2017, although no such book has been published.

His film Eighth Grade was released on July 13, 2018 to widespread critical acclaim and currently holds a 98% Tomatometer rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
