I opened a newspaper and read about distress
I opened my wardrobe and saw a pretty dress
Why am I bothered about people far away?
Let them ruin their neighbourhood, not my lovely day
I ask myself questions to which the answer's yes
Do I see sunshine and flowers? The answer's yes
The Chinese greeting is asking, did you eat?
I forget. Think of chocolate, meringue, shops full of sweets
Let's recap. Is the sun shining? It is. The answer's yes.
Did I eat today? I guess the answer's yes
Forget the past, future, think about this place
Just look in the mirror. Smile at my smiling face.
