Lyrics

[00:12.65] It's alright, 'cause the historical pattern has shown
[00:19.06] How the economical cycle tends to revolve
[00:24.60] In a round of decades three stages stand out in a loop
[00:30.45] A slump and war then peel back to square one and back for more
[00:35.84] Bigger slump and bigger wars and a smaller recovery
[00:41.39] Huger slump and greater wars and a shallower recovery
[00:47.52] You see the recovery always comes 'round again
[00:53.73] There's nothing to worry for things will look after themselves
[00:59.47] It's alright, recovery always comes 'round again
[01:05.11] There's nothing to worry if things can only get better
[01:10.41] There's only millions that lose their jobs
[01:13.20] And homes and sometimes accents
[01:16.10] There's only millions that die in their bloody wars, it's alright
[01:22.04] It's only their lives and the lives of their next of kin that they are losing
[01:27.73] It's only their lives and the lives of their next of kin that they are losing
[01:33.53] It's alright, 'cause the historical pattern has shown
[01:39.68] How the economical cycle tends to revolve
[01:45.32] In a round of decades, three stages stand out in a loop
[01:50.97] A slump and war then peel back to square one and back for more
[01:56.06] Bigger slump and bigger wars and a smaller recovery
[02:01.94] Huger slump and greater wars and a shallower recovery
[02:07.59] Don't worry be happy things will get better naturally
[02:13.38] Don't worry, shut up, sit down, go with it and be happy
[02:19.02] Dum, dum, dum, de dum dum
[02:21.20] De duh de duh de dum dum dum, ah ah
[02:24.94] Dum, dum, dum, de dum dum
[02:26.82] De duh de duh de dum dum dum, ah ah
