That's All Right With Me

People come and people go, but never go away

And spend their time complaining

That their complaint was hardly worth the time it took to do it

But they seem to do it anyway

And when it's done they say they want to run and hide their face

There's nothing to it!

Chorus:

That's all right with me - I just sit and mumble "please"

That's all with me - I look at them they look at me

All we can say is, "Cheese!"

People waste their time regretting how they spent their youth

It wasn't theirs to spend but in the end

They say "I think I've seen the truth!"

And thinking makes me tired, oh really what's the use

It's just too much, let's got to bed and get a snack

It's such a headache

(Chorus)

Lots of times I've looked around and thought I saw a face I recognized

But I was wrong I just excuse myself and leave.

But still it makes me think that maybe they've a special part to play

But then I push that thought away because it's much too complicated.

I frame a thought of Dickens towns with characters so unaware

Of each other's influence on each other's lives

The butcher raised his price today, so Tiny Tim may have to starve a little

But that just gives the humble clerk the chance to sing the hero's song.

And it doesn't really matter if I think about it

Cause even if I don't it will happen anyway!

That's all right with me - I just sit and mumble, "please"

That's all right with me - I look at them, they look at me

We can both stare, but don't care to see

The birdie held high, so we both agree

To say, "Cheese!"
