Featuring Fat Tony on vocals.

lyrics

I can't sleep at night without the cricket scores on the BBC
Voices droning numbers that mean nothing at all to me
Your breathing is soft but it doesn't relax me 'cause I need it so
We're all in God's plan, the alarm clock included, so let it go

I walked fifteen blocks on top of the subway to avoid the fare
Then spent thirty bucks on beer and admission and covered my ears
I walked you home around the garbage trucks and didn't speak my mind
Your hair turned black in the orange light; I took it as a sign

I'll never be worried again, I'll never be worried again
If I can meet you for lunch and see you at dinner again
If the mice stay in the wall and you return my calls
And the ice caps melt slowly, I'll never be worried again

Some day I'll trip over my name in lights while I'm on a bus downtown
But the look on your face when you're back from the doctor means it's time to settle down
You won't need a sweater in the heart of December and the birds have flown away
But it's all in God's plan, and who's gonna stop Him from calling it a day

I'll never be worried again, I'll never be worried again
If I can meet you for lunch and see you at dinner again
If the mice stay in the wall and you return my calls
And the ice caps melt slowly, I'll never be worried again
