Think About Your Troubles - Belly

Sit beside the breakfast table

Think about your troubles

Pour yourself a cup of tea

And think about the bubbles

You can take your teardrops

And drop 'em in a teacup

Take 'em down to the riverside

And throw 'em over the side

To be swept up by a current

And taken to the ocean

To be eaten by some fishes

Who were eaten by some fishes

And swallowed by a whale

Who grew so old

He decomposed

He died and left his body

To the bottom of the ocean

Now everybody knows

That when a body decomposes

The basic elements

Are given back to the ocean

And the sea does what it oughta

And soon there’s salty water

That’s not too good for drinking

'Cause it tastes just like a teardrop

So they run it through a filter

And it comes out from a faucet

And is poured into a teapot

Which is just about to bubble

Now, think about your troubles!
