When I was a little boy, I had
a skateboard
One
day I skinned my knee, And it began
to bleed
So I raced inside to see my mum, She said to me, "Now Johnny, don't
you be dumb"
"It will be O.K.", "Johnny, it will be O.K."
BUT
THERE WAS TROUBLE
IN PARADISE
I
SAW IT ON
THE NEWS
ALL
THE DOGS THEY
WERE TRANQUILLISED
THEY HAD THE
BLUES
NONE
OF THEM COULD GET
BONES
BIG
ENOUGH TO EAT
SO THEY CRIED
OUT
AND COULDN'T GET
TO SLEEP
IN THE MORNING
LIGHT
IT WILL BE
ALL RIGHT
DON’T HOWL
When I was twenty-one, My wife and I we had a son
And
when my son was all of four, I gave
him my skateboard
He
grew into a big strong boy, You should
have seen his joy
He had so much fun, Playing in the sun
BUT
THERE WAS TROUBLE IN PARADISE
I
SAW IT ON THE NEWS
ALL THE CATS THEY
WERE TRANQUILLISED
THEY HAD THE BLUES
NONE
OF THEM COULD
COME INSIDE
THEY
HAD TO WIPE
THEIR SHOES
AND THEY HAD TO
WASH THEIR FEET
BEFORE THEY COULD
EAT
IN THE
MORNING LIGHT
IT WILL BE
ALL RIGHT
SO NOW
DON’T MEOW
When my son turned
seventeen, He said to me, "I
have a dream"
He
said, "I want to be number one",
I told him "Son, no problem"
He
became the biggest man, Ever to stand,
in this old land
You
call him, ‘Your President', I wonder if he forgets ?
When he was a little boy, He had a skateboard .....
One day he skinned his knee, And it began to bleed .....
So he raced inside to see his
mum, She said to him, "Now
Johnny, don't you be dumb"
"It will be O.K.", "Johnny, it will be O.K."
BUT THERE
WAS TROUBLE IN
PARADISE
I
SAW IT ON
THE NEWS
ALL THE HUMANS
THEY WERE TRANQUILLISED
THEY
HAD THE BLUES
NONE OF THEM
COULD SEE THE
LIGHT
SHINING OH SO
BRIGHT
NOT ONE OF
THEM BELIEVED
THAT IT WOULD
BE ALL RIGHT
IN
THE MORNING
LIGHT
SO NOW
SO
NOW DON’T GROWL…
SO NOW DON’T
GROWL…
IT WILL BE O.K.

Look around you, you are
very lucky !
Look ahead
it is very clear
You are
living in the land of milk and honey
HEAVEN IS RIGHT HERE
Now I know a man who said
"I wish I could go to heaven"
Me I
can see HEAVEN IS RIGHT HERE
Some people
wouldn't know it if it bit them
HEAVEN IS RIGHT HERE
Look around you, you are
very lucky !
Look ahead
it is very clear
You are
living in the land of milk and honey
HEAVEN IS RIGHT HERE
Now I know a man who said
he just wanted to be happy
You know
he had it all but he could not see
He was
always cursing and whining
He never did
see the forest from the trees
Look around you, you are
very lucky !
Look
ahead it is very clear
You are
living in the land of milk and honey
HEAVEN IS RIGHT HERE
HEAVEN IS RIGHT HERE
HEAVEN IS RIGHT HERE
