It`s Alright (Don`t Think About It) — текст песни (Kinks)

They want your mind and your body
But they don`t understand
And don`t care much about it
Gotta work for your country
Society`s built on concrete and money
If this room was to vanish
And the toys of man turned to civilized dust
There`d still be you and me, honey
With our history gone
But the spirit lives on

Build those highways, build those cars
On a planet full of scrap metal
There`d better be life on Mars

Chorus:
It`s alright, it`s alright
If you don`t think about it
It`s alright
If you don`t look at it, it`s alright

How time slips away
Live by the Good Book
That`s what the wise men say
But where does it leave us
Were they right or were they wrong
Gotta have hope, gotta carry on

It`s alright, it`s alright
It`s alright, it`s alright

They want your soul and your spirit
Make them understand
These things they never can have
Gotta work for your family
A community built on trust, not money
If this town was to vanish
And the office blocks were just turned into ashes
They`d be you and me, honey
With the will to survive
And the spirit lives on

Build those factories
Plants and cars
On a planet so desecrated
There`d better be life on Mars

Chorus

How time slips away
Live by the Good Book
That`s what the wise men say
But where does it leave us
Were they right or were they wrong
Gotta have hope
Gotta carry on

It`s alright, it`s alright
