Think About Your Troubles

[Verse 1] Sit beside the breakfast table Think about your troubles Pour yourself a cup a tea And think about the bubbles You can take your teardrops And drop 'em in a teacup Take them down to the riverside [Verse 2] And throw 'em over the side To be swept up by a current Then taken to the ocean To be eaten by some fishes Who were eaten by some fishes And swallowed by a whale Who grew so old, he decomposed [Verse 3] He died and left his body To the bottom of the ocean Now, everybody knows That when a body decomposes The basic elements Are given back to the ocean And the sea does what it ought'a And soon, there's salty water (Not too good for drinking) [Verse 4] 'Cause it tastes just like a teardrop (So we run it through a filter) And it comes out from a faucet (And it pours into a teapot) Which is just about to bubble now Think about your troubles [Outro] Oh, oh-oh-oh
