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 Matter more than your feet and hair

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 so sorry when I'm gone

Sleep and I shall soothe you...
Close your eyes Close your eyes and relax (repeat)
