Everything's Alright

Try not to get worried
Try not to turn on to 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 all right, 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've 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 on to problems that upset you
Don't you know everything's alright?
Yes, everything 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, an' 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 tonight)
Close your eyes, close your eyes (everything's alright, yes)
And relax (everything's alright, yes)
Close your eyes, close your eyes (everything's alright, yes)
And relax (everything's alright, yes)

Close your eyes, close your eyes (everything's alright, yes)
And relax (everything's alright, yes)
Close your eyes, close your eyes (everything's alright, yes)
And relax (everything's alright, yes)
Close your eyes, close your eyes (everything's alright, yes)
And relax (everything's alright, yes)
Close your eyes...
