from the songs album Jesus Christ Superstar
[Mary Magdalene]
Try not to get worried
Try not to hold on to
Problems that upset you, oh
don't you know
Everything's All Right Now, Everything's fine
And we want you to sleep well tonight
Let the world turn without your tonight
If we try, we'll get by
So forget all about us tonight.
[Chorus]
Everything's All Right Now
Everything's All Right Now
[Mary Magdalene]
Sleep and I shall soothe you
Calm you and anoint you
Myrrh for your hot forehead, oh
Then you'll feel
Everything's All Right Now, 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.
[Chorus]
Everything's All Right Now
Everything's All Right Now
[Judas]
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 strving matter more
Than your feet and hair.
[Mary Magdalene]
Try not to get worried
Try not to hold on to
Problems that upset you, oh
don't you know
Everything's All Right Now, Everything's fine
And we want you to sleep well tonight
Let the world turn without your tonight
If we try, we'll get by
So forget all about us tonight.
[Chorus]
Everything's All Right Now
Everything's All Right Now
[Jesus]
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,
You'll be so so sorry
When I'm gone.
[Mary Magdalene]
Sleep and I shall soothe you
Calm you and anoint you
Myrrh for your hot forehead, oh
Then you'll feel
Everything's All Right Now, 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.
[Chorus]
Everything's All Right Now
Everything's All Right Now (Repeat)
[Mary Magdalene]
Close your eyes, Close your eyes and relax,
Think of nothing, tonight. (Repeat)
