All for the Best |
| When you feel sad, or under a curse |
| Your life is bad, your prospects are worse |
| Your wife is crying, sighing… |
| And your olive tree is dying, |
| Temples are graying, and teeth are decaying |
| And creditors weighing your purse… |
| Your mood and your robe |
| Are both a deep blue |
| You’d bet that Job |
| Had nothin' on you… |
| Don’t forget that when you go to Heaven you’ll be blessed. |
| Yes, it’s all for the best… |
| Some men are born to live at ease, doing what they please, |
| Richer than the bees are in honey |
| Never growing old, never feeling cold |
| Pulling pots of gold from thin air |
| The best in every town, best at shaking down |
| Best at making mountains of money |
| They can’t take it with them, but what do they care? |
| They get the center of the meat, cushions on the seat |
| Houses on the street where it’s sunny. |
| Summers at the sea, winters warm and free |
| All of this and we get the rest… |
| But who is the land for? |
| The sun and the sand for? |
| You guessed! |
| It’s all for the best… |
| When you feel sad, or under a curse |
| Your life is bad, your prospects are worse |
| Your wife is crying, sighing… |
| And your olive tree is dying, |
| Temples are graying, and teeth are decaying |
| And creditors weighing your purse… |
| Your mood and your robe |
| Are both a deep blue |
| You’d bet that Job |
| Had nothin' on you… |
| Don’t forget that when you go to Heaven you’ll be blessed… |
| You guessed! |
| It’s all for the |
| Some men are born to live at ease, doing what they please, |
| Richer than the bees are in honey |
| Never growing old, never feeling cold |
| Pulling pots of gold from thin air |
| The best in every town, best at shaking down |
| Best at making mountains of money |
| They can’t take it with them, but what do they care? |
| They get the center of the meat, cushions on the seat |
| Houses on the street where it’s sunny… |
| Summers at the sea, winters warm and free |
| All of this and we get the rest… |
| But who is the land for? |
| The sun and the sand for? |
| You guessed! |
| It’s all for the |
| You must never be distressed |
| Yes, it’s all for the… |
| All your wrongs will be redressed |
| Yes, it’s all for the… |
| Someone’s got to be oppressed! |
| Yes, it’s all for the best!!! |
