Inconclusive
I worry, you tell me not to worry, be happy
there is nothing to worry about
but still I keep on worrying
it's easier to worry than be happy
i'm not really sure
I know what it means to be happy
is it a red sunset on the blue horizon
a child smiles and lauhgs
the fresh smell after spring showers
or wathcng her walk
a litter of squirming puppies
a babe at the breast
a flower in bloom
a flock of birds overhead
happenings and sweet cliches
I don't think I can know when I am happy
without telling a story
but I know when I'm not

De Rong Song
Your house is
Falling down
Around
Your
Feet,
And you got
Nought
To eat,
Don't worry
Be happy.
Your fish
Have drowned
You wear
A frown,
You search
But you don't
Own a pound,
Don't worry
Be happy.
You ain't got
Nowhere to
Play,
Just balconies
And
Motorways,
Don't worry
Be happy.
You meet
Someone
You really like,
They tell you to
Get on your bike,
Don't worry
Be happy.
You're on your bike
And all is fine,
You get caught
In a washing line,
Don't worry
Be happy.
You go to school
The school is
Gone,
The Government
Put pressure on,
Don't worry
Be happy.
Your tea is
Dry
Your ice is
Hot,
Your head is
Tied up in a
Not,
Don't worry
Be happy.
You worry
Because
You're hurrying,
And hurry
Because
You're worrying,
Don't happy
Be worried.

Are You Happy?
Think not much of the past
cry no more for the love that went away
can't you see?
you've been crying all these time
are you happy?
Worry not much of the future
stop running around
here and there
every now and then
can't you see?
you even forgot to dial
your mom's number on her birthday
are you happy?
Why think too much of the past?
why worry too much of the future?
you don't have them in your hands now....
are you happy? ...
are you happy now?

Worries
Everyday we worry
whenever something goes wrong.
Some worry more than others
and their problems seem to grow.
We worry about our kids,
what troubles they get into.
We worry about money,
and how we will pay the bills.
We worry about food
will we have enough
to keep our bellies fed
and give us our daily bread.
We worry about everything
that goes on around us,
our family, our friends, our neighbours
and even strangers
whose lives we do not know.
Sometimes our worries
can even make us ill.
We can never stop worrying.
It is just part of our frame of mind.
However, we should stop worrying
about what is going to happen,
as we cannot change it
or alter its course.

Trust Fund
I know a couple who are in love living in the best of times
A truer love you will never know
Right next to a pain theyll never realize
Sheltered from it in a loving glow young and happy and oh-so politically correct
Just get it if you need it now
Just go buy it if you need it in your life
Dont you worry if it all runs out
Dont worry because it never will
I know a young girl living in the shadow of the kind of life that she could never make
She takes it all and gives it back in love to handsome artists in her native state
She is the angel of the loser and the disenchanted soul
Just get it if you need it now
Just buy it if it makes you happy
Dont you worry if it all runs out
Dont worry because it never will

Dont Worry
Dont worry bout me
Its all over now
Though I may be blue
Ill manage somehow
Love cant be explained
It cant be controled
Once day its warm
Next day its cold
Dont pitty me cause I feelin blue
Dont be ashamed
It might happen to you
Oh, oh love, kiss me one time
Then go love, Ill understand
Dont worry bout me
Sweet sweet sweet love
I want you to be
As happy as i
When you love me
Well, Ill never forget you
Your sweet memory
Its all over now
Well dont worry bout me
Then when I tell some heart, one heart good-bye
One heart is free
And one heart will cry
Oh, oh sweet sweet baby sweet baby sweet
Its alright
Well, dont worry bout me

The Happy Person
In a World where many have ulcers due to worry and stress
And where people are judged by material success
And since everyone answers to the reaper's call
The happy one is the most successful of all.
For the top job the happy one does not compete
And the happy one never feels sad in defeat
Not to be a hero or catch the big fish
Just to be happy in life is the happy one's wish.
The happy one can be a he or a she
But to find such a person do not look for me
Since like many others i feel weighed down by care
Though people like me they have never been rare.
The happy one everyone wishes to know
And the friends of the happy one in numbers grow
One who is not tainted by conceit or guile
And one who finds it easy to laugh and to smile

Don't Worry
if you fail now
don't worry
try next time
if you are excluded
don't worry
soon the right season shall come
if you are down and out
don't worry
try again
there is always another chance
another time
if you fall this time
or if you fall again and again
don't worry
try and try again until you make it next time
there is no limit
rise, rise, always rise from it
from where you have fallen
don't worry
there will always be a place for each everyone

there is always a place to be happy
for you and for me

When i saw you
when i saw u sitting with ur friend
i smiled because u were happy
when i saw u laugthing
i smiled because u were happy
all the time i see u happy it makes me smile
because i know that u are happy
and that u are all right
people say i got feelings for you
true it once was
but now i must say that
i no longer have
i am sorry but we all know
you are happy with the one you love
so i to have moved on
with a smile on my face

Sonnet: Don’t Worry
Don’t you worry for worry could steal life;
Don’t you worry for worrying isn’t of use;
Don’t you worry for each man will have strife;
Don’t you worry for worrying’s gone a fuse.
Life’s problems come like waves upon the sea;
Some are so small while some are mighty waves;
And when they rise, you simply let them be,
Till time returns when calm the sea behaves.
No earthling can face Nature in fury;
All wise persons will stay away from her;
Can you argue with persons when angry?
Wait patiently for a better weather.
More bubbles wink when boiling is water;
On cooling down, ’tis no more a matter.

Hated Shadows
Happy people
with happy faces
Do happy things
in happy places
Little to worry
little to care
Never are sorry
never are there
Through the Viel they live
they cannot see
people around them
people like me
People Invisible
people Divisible
We are not important to happy people
we do not exist
broken shadows of broken people
Happines Glows
Shadows can not exist
With their happy lives
their happy husbands and happy wives
their happy bars
their happy cars
they shine brite
like stars
The shadows
look onto the light with envy
knowing they cannot co-exist
feel hopeless
lost
sedentary
singular
Hated.

Dont Worry Baby
Well its been building up inside of me
For oh I dont know how long
I dont know why
But I keep thinking
Somethings bound to go wrong
But she looks in my eyes
And makes me realize
And she says dont worry baby
Dont worry baby
Dont worry baby
Everything will turn out alright
Dont worry baby
Dont worry baby
Dont worry baby
I guess I shouldve kept my mouth shut
When I started to brag about my car
But I cant back down now
I pushed the other guys too far
She makes me come alive
And makes me wanna drive
When she says dont worry baby
Dont worry baby
Dont worry baby
Everything will turn out alright
Dont worry baby
Dont worry baby
Dont worry baby
She told me baby, when you race today
Just take along my love with you
And if you know how much I loved you
Baby nothing could go wrong with you
Oh what she does to me
When she makes love to me
And she says dont worry baby
Dont worry baby
Dont worry baby
Everything will turn out alright
Dont worry baby
Dont worry baby
Dont worry baby

Forgiveness Is Not the Key
I look down at the people, I worry about their woes
I worry about their joys, their friends, their foes
I worry about their lives and the way they live it
I worry about their dreams and wonder if they’ll heed it
I worry about the tears I see running down their face
I worry about their lies they tell in this time and place
I worry about their truths that always hurt more
I worry about what they will definitely have in store
I look down at the people who never showed compassion
Who hate each other with the strongest passion
Who pushed me aside as though I were nothing
I wonder, do they care about anything?
I realise they treat each other as dirt
And they revel within all the hurt
Not one ever worried for me
I’m so glad that I can finally see
I refuse to worry or care about them and their petty ways
I will never again worry for their days
Because not one ever cared for me
Forgiveness is not the key
Not when I live life so lonely
I want to be loved only
For them I’ll never again feel woe
Because I’ll be nothing but their foe

Happy Birthday Dad.
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
A whole year has gone by
With a blink of an eye
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
You are a year older
Don't worry, you'll live longer
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Time sure flies when you're having fun
That's how I'll feel when this day is done.

I Promise, I Tried, but Its Not My Fault
I said I would be happy now
I said I would try to smile
but its my meds, I swear
theyre stopping me,
I cant be happy,
I cant smile
I dont need this medication
these pills,
these drugs
I don't need any of it
they just block my path
like a boulder in the way
they make me the person I don't want to be
just let me be free,
let me be happy.
I wont go there again,
ill behave this time
you don't need to worry
just free me from this cell,
I will be okay,
I will be happy.

Dont Worry bout Me
Rube bloom / ted koehler
Dont worry bout me
Ill get along
Just you forget about me
Be happy my love
Just say that our little show is over
And so the story ends
Why not call it a day, the sensible way
And well remain friends
Look out for yourself
Should be the rule
Just give your heart and your love, to whom ever you love
Dont you be a fool
Baby why stop and cling, to some fading thing
That used to be
So if you cant forget
Dont you worry bout me

Dont You Worry bout A Thing
(s. wonder)
Everybodys got a thing
But some dont know how to handle it
Always reachin out in vain
Just taking the things not worth havin
Chorus:
But dont you worry bout a thing
Dont you worry bout a thing (dont you worry, baby)
cause Ill be standing on the side when you check it out
They say your style of lifes a drag
And that you must go other places
Just dont you feel too bad
When you get fooled by smiling faces
Chorus
When you get off your trip
Dont you worry bout a thing
Dont you worry bout a thing
Chorus
Everybody needs a change
A chance to check out the new
Youre the only one who see
The changes you take yourself through
Dont you worry bout a thing
Dont you worry bout a thing (sweet baby)
cause Ill be standin in the wings when you check it out
Dont you worry bout a thing
Dont you worry bout a thing
Dont worry, dont worry, dont worry cause Ill be right here waitin for you baby
Repeat (fade)

The More I Worry About Money
THE MORE I WORRY ABOUT MONEY
The more I worry about money
The more I worry about money-
Life has to change
I have to do something to earn some money
I am already too old for most things
I perhaps can be a caregiver again
A minimum salary for too much time lost-
The more I worry about money
The more I know I must do something
What will I do?
I will write a poem about worrying about money
And maybe perhaps after I have delayed it as long as possible
Go again to work long hours for a minimal sum
