Everything's Alright

Try not to get worried, try not to turn onto

Problems that upset you

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

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

(Everything's alright, yes, everything's alright, yes)

Hey woman, your fine 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 hair!

Try not to get worried, try not to turn onto

Problems that upset you

Don't you know

Everything's alright, yes, everything's alright, yes

Surely you're not saying we have the resources

To save the poor from their lot

There will be poor always, pathetically struggling

Look at the good things you've got

Think, while you still have me

Move, while you still see me

You'll be lost, and you'll be 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)

Close your eyes, close your eyes, and relax

Close your eyes, close your eyes, and relax

Close your eyes, close your eyes, and relax

Close your eyes, close your eyes, and relax

Close your eyes, close your eyes, and relax

Close your eyes, close your eyes, and relax
