Try not to get worried, try not to turn on to Problems that upset you, oh. 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
Sleep and I shall soothe you, calm you, and anoint you. Myrrh for your hot forehead, oh. 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.
Woman your fine ointment, brand new and expensive Should have been saved for the poor. Why has it been wasted? We could have raised maybe Three hundred silver pieces or more. People who are hungry, people who are starving They matter more than your feet and hair!
MARY MAGDALENE
Try not to get worried, try not to turn on to Problems that upset you, oh. Don't you know
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, and you'll be sorry when I'm gone.
MARY MAGDALENE
