When I woke up early this morning
The news told me how I should spend my day: in fear
I should be afraid of the poison in my food, in my water
Still I feel okay

They tell you the sky's on fire
They tell you the world is dire
They tell you the ocean's are dying
They tell you the forests are drying
But as I look as I wander
The place is as pretty as ever
Oh... I don't wanna worry no more

As I talk to the people I meet every day
They tell me how I should live in fear
I should fear the sun's rays
Still I feel okay

They tell you the sky's on fire
They tell you the world is dire
They tell you the ocean's are dying
They tell you the forests are drying
But as I look as I wander
The place is as pretty as ever
Oh... I don't wanna worry no more

Didn't die of atom bombs or thermonuclear war
Didn't die of CFC's or population's soar
Didn't die of nuclear winter freezing up the land
Didn't die when the years reached a couple grand
Didn't die of Swine Flu, didn't die of drought
But they say we may die any time, but still I doubt
When they tell me of the next big thing that we all should quake and fear

"I just go outside and play
And it all just disappears."

They tell you the sky's on fire
They tell you the world is dire
They tell you the ocean's are dying
They tell you the forests are drying
But as I look as I wander
The place is as pretty as ever
Oh... I don't wanna worry no more

Oh... I don't wanna worry no more
Oh... I don't wanna worry no more
