LYRICS

My my my it's a beautiful world
I like swimmin' in the sea
I like to go out beyond the white breakers
Where a man can still be free, or a woman if you are one
I like swimmin' in the sea
My my my it's a beautiful world
I like drinkin' Irish tea
With a little bit of Lapsang Souchong
I like makin' my own tea

My my my it's a beautiful world
I like drivin' in my car
I roll the top down, sometimes I travel quite far
Drive to the ocean, stare up at the stars
I like drivin' in my car

All around is anger
Automatic guns
There's death in large numbers
No respect for women or our little ones
I tried talking to Jesus
But he just put me on hold
Said he'd been swamped by calls this week
And he could not shake his cold

And still this emptiness persists
Perhaps this is as good as it gets
When you've given up the drink and those nasty cigarettes
Now I leave the party early, at least with no regrets
I watch the sun as it comes up, I watch it as it sets
Yeah this is as good as it gets

Well my my my it's a beautiful world
I like sleepin' with Marie
She is one sexy girl full of mystery
She says she doesn't love me but she likes my company
For now that's good enough for me

Well my my my it's a beautiful world
I like swimmin' in the sea
I like to go out beyond the white breakers
Where a man can still be free, or a woman if you are one
I like swimmin' in the sea
