Kinks - It's Alright (Don't Think About It) - Текст песни

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
