Everything's Alright (From "Jesus Christ Superstar" Soundtrack)

Try not to get worried

Try not to turn on to problems that upset you

Don't you know everything's alright?

Yes, everything's fine

And we want you to sleep well tonight

Let the world turn without you tonight

If we try, we'll get by

So forget all about us tonight (everything's alright)

(Yes, everything's alright, yes)

Sleep and I shall soothe you, calm you, and anoint you

Myrrh for your hot forehead

Then you'll feel everything's alright, yes, everything's fine

And it's cool, and the ointment's sweet

For the fire in your head and feet

Close your eyes, close your eyes and relax

Think of nothing tonight (everything's all right, yes)

(Everything's alright, yes)

Hey, woman, your fine ointment, brand-new and expensive

Should have been saved for the poor

Why has it been wasted?

We could've raised, maybe, three hundred silver pieces or more

People who are hungry, people who are starving

They matter more than your feet and hair

Try not to get worried

Try not to turn on to problems that upset you

Don't you know everything's alright?

Yes, everything alright, yes

Surely, you're not saying we have the resources

To save the poor from their lot

There will be poor always pathetically struggling

Look at the good things you've got

Think while you still have me

Move while you still see me

You'll be lost, an' you'll be sorry when I'm gone

Sleep and I shall soothe you, calm you and anoint you

Myrrh for your hot forehead

Then you'll feel everything's alright, yes, everything's fine

And it's cool and the ointment's sweet

For the fire in your head and feet

Close your eyes, close your eyes and relax

Think of nothing tonight (close your eyes, close your eyes and relax)

(Think of nothing tonight)

Close your eyes, close your eyes (everything's alright, yes)

And relax (everything's alright, yes)
