No Bad Thing — текст песни (Cutting Crew)

Eede/MacMichael

Little Johnny`s painting in his picture book
Pinning all his hopes on toy balloons
But no one taught him how to sing "Jerusalem" at school
Someone`s always dicking with the tunes

It`s a beautiful day for the children to play
(Isn`t that what this should be?)
It`s a beautiful world and you`re free as a bird
(Ain`t no bad thing to believe)
It`s a beautiful game and the rules never change
(Isn`t that what it should be?)

Isn`t this the garden of Gethsemane?
Isn`t this where all the children play?
Little Johnny`s painting pictures no one else will see
Who are we to rain on his parade?

It`s a beautiful day for the children to play
(Isn`t that what this should be?)
It`s a beautiful world and you`re free as a bird
(Ain`t no bad thing to believe)
It`s a beautiful game and the rules never change
(Isn`t that what this should be?)

You don`t have to suffer

Happiness in bundles hanging from tall trees
Ladders on the lawn for you and me, (Ain`t no bad thing)
Curtains drawn on windows of uncertain certainties
We don`t get these premises for free

It`s a beautiful day for the children to play
(Isn`t that what this should be?)
It`s a beautiful world and you`re free as a bird
(Ain`t no bad thing to believe)
It`s a beautiful game and the rules never change
(Isn`t that what this should be?)

Mother nature`s gift to you and me,
(Ain`t no bad thing)
