Lyrics
When something's happening
I know it's happening to me
It may be far away, but I know it's happening to me
And I tell myself
Don't worry
Don't worry
It may be the Middle East
Might be the water flowing south
The crappy air we breathe
Or the bad taste in my mouth
Don't . . . it's still a beautiful world
Don't worry . . .
Don't . . . it's still a beautiful world
I worry 'bout the rising tides
More trouble up in Palestine (volatile)
And what about the changing climes?
I've got a lot on my mind!
We're working too much overtime
Did you know we're running out of time? (I take my time)
I'm clinging to what's mine is mine
What's brewing at the border line?
Don't worry, don't worry
Don't . . . don't . . . don't
Don't sweat it
This life's a mystery
And it gets deeper every day
Wish I could find a way
Make all the weirdness go away
If I said I didn't care about the world, well I'd be lyin'
But I know what's best for me -
Yeah, this old neighborhood of mine
And I tell myself
Don't worry
Don't worry
It's still a beautiful world
It's still a beautiful world
It's still a beautiful world
Don't worry - it's still a beautiful world
