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 can take your teardrops
And drop them in a teacup
Take them down to the riverside

[Verse 2]
And throw them 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
