Lyrics

Twenty-five years and my life is still
Trying to get that great big hill of hope For a destination
I realized quickly when I knew I should
That the world was made up of this brotherhood of man
For whatever that means

And so I cry sometimes
When I'm lying in bed Just to get it all out What's in my head
And I, I am feeling a little peculiar
And so I wake in the morning
And I step outside
And I take a deep breath and I get real high
And I scream from the top of my lungs What's going on?

Here's a little song I wrote
You might want to sing it note for note
Don't worry, be happy

In every life we have some trouble
But when you worry you make it double
Don't worry, be happy
Don't worry, be happy now

And I try, oh my god do I try
I try all the time, in this institution
And I pray, oh my god do I pray
I pray every single day
For a revolution.
And so I wake in the morning
And I step outside
And I take a deep breath and I get real high
And I scream from the top of my lungs

What's going on?

Ain't got no place to lay your head
Somebody came and took your bed Don't worry, be happy
The landlord say your rent is late He may have to litigate
Don't worry, be happy
But don't worry, be happy, be happy now
