Lyrics
Paul McCartney
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well it's a funny, sad, strange situation I've been in
Where everything I do is my next worst sin
I'm tired of watching life pass me by in fear
So, I lit this joint and burned a whole right through the atmosphere
'Cause I don't wanna watch life pass me by
No, I don't wanna hide away inside
Gotta get back to the basics
Step out of the matrix
Life's too short to waste it
It's a beautiful day
To step outside and hear him calling
I'm not gonna write you a sad song
I'm not gonna write about how I don't belong
'Cause as tempting as it seems
Well, that just isn't me
So, I'll do like Paul McCartney
And I'll just let it be, let it bе
Let me get my gеneration
Back to a point of preservation and regeneration
Where peace of mind is more important than this demonstration
Anxiety is overwhelming our radio stations
Depression is most artists' only point of conversation
Which leads to negativity and personal frustration
This frame of mind is deadly amongst many heavy faces
Ready to believe in the self-hatred that's in their playlist
How do we change this?
It's a beautiful day
To step outside and hear him calling
I'm not gonna write you a sad song
I'm not gonna write about how I don't belong
'Cause as tempting as it seems
Well, that just isn't me
So, I'll do like Paul McCartney
And I'll just let it be, let it be
