Think About Your Troubles

[Verse 1]

Sit beside the breakfast table

Think about your troubles

Pour yourself a cup of tea

And think about the bubbles

You could take your teardrops

And drop them to a teacup

Bring it down to the riverside

And throw 'em over the side

To be swept up by a current

And 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

Doo, doo, doo

[Verse 2]

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)

Cause it tastes just like a teardrop

(So we run it through a filter)

And it comes out from the faucet

(And pours into a teapot)

Which is just about to bubble

Now

Think about your troubles
