Did you ever stop to notice It's when you feel a little low That the entire spinning universe Descends to say hello With heavy-handed cheerfulness And a calculated smile and says 'Carry me awhile' But you don't have to carry Much of anything at all The biggest thoughts of bigger things Are really pretty small The major thoughts that occupy the minor state of mind Are what we leave behind Just a minor thought that we can leave behind
Don't worry 'bout the future, you can't afford the price There's madness to the method when you pay the piper Twice once when you start to worry Once again when you begin to take the future on the Chin I know that you think worry is your ever-faithful Friend cuz nothin' that you worry over ever happens in the End and there might be somethin' to it But it sure gets in the way of fun today What you say we try and have some fun today
It takes a sense of balance on this tiny little ball With a tiny mind still big enought to think about it all To realize the size of things is just a state of mind And you can change your mind There's a riddle in the middle of that univeral spin But we're out here on the edges where it gets a little thin So just for once permit yourself a carefree little grin From the outside lookin' in Cuz we're out here on the outside lookin' in And it's better on the outside lookin' in
