Everything's Alright
Try not to get worried
Try not to turn on to problems that upset you
Oh, don't you know everything's alright?
Yes, everything's fine
And we want you to sleep well tonight
Let the world turn without you tonight
If we try, we'll get by
So forget all about us tonight
(everything's alright, yes)
(everything's alright, yes)
Sleep and I shall soothe you
Calm you and anoint you
Myrrh for your hot forehead
And you'll feel everything's alright
Yes, everything's fine
And it's cool and the ointment's sweet
For the fire in your head and feet
Close your eyes
Close your eyes and relax
Think of nothing tonight
(everything's alright, yes)
(everything's alright, yes)
Ay woman, you find ointment
Brand new and expensive
Should have been saved for the poor
Why has it been wasted?
We could have raised maybe
Three hundred silver pieces or more
People who are hungry
People who are starving
They matter more than your feet and head
Try not to get worried
Try not to turn onto problems that upset you
Oh, don't you know everything's alright?
Yes, everything's fine
And we want you to sleep well tonight
Let the world turn without you tonight
If we try we'll get by
So forget all about us tonight
(everything's alright, yes)
(everything's alright, yes)
Surely you're not saying
We have the resources
to save the poor from their luck
There will be poor always
Pathetically struggling
Look at the good things we've got
Think while you still have me
Move while you still see me
You'll be lost
You'll be so, so sorry when I'm gone
Sleep and I shall soothe you
Calm you and anoint you
Myrrh for your hot forehead
Then you'll feel everything's alright
Yes, everything's fine
And it's cool and the ointment's sweet
For the fire in your head and feet
Close your eyes
Close your eyes, and relax
Think of nothing tonight
(Close your eyes)
(Close your eyes, and relax)
(Think of nothing tonight)
Close your eyes
Close your eyes, and relax
(Close your eyes)
(Close your eyes, and relax)
(Think of nothing tonight)
Close your eyes
Close your eyes, and relax
Think of nothing tonight
(Close your eyes)
(Close your eyes, and relax)
(Think of nothing tonight)
Close your eyes
Close your eyes, and relax
Think of nothing tonight
