My, my, my it's a beautiful world
I like swimming in the sea
I like to go on beyond the white breakers,
where a man can still be free
Or a woman if you are one
I like swimming in the sea
My, my, my it's a beautiful world
I like drinking Irish tea
With a little bit of Lapsan su Chang
I like making my own tea
My, my, my it's a beautiful world
I like driving in my car
I roll the top down, sometimes I travel quite far
Drive to the ocean, and stare up at the stars
I like driving in my car
All around is anger, automatic guns
Death in large numbers
No respect for women or our little ones
I tried talking to Jesus,
He just put me on hold
Said he'd been swamped with calls this weekend,
could not shake his cold
And still this emptiness persists
Perhaps this is as good as it gets
You've given up a drink and those nasty cigarettes
Now leave the party early, at least with no regrets
I watch the sun as it comes up, I watch it as it sets
Yeah, this is as good as it gets
My, my, my it's a beautiful world
I like sleeping with Marie
She is one sexy girl, full of mystery
She says she doesn't love me, she likes my company
For now, thats good enough for me
My, my, my it's a beautiful world
I like swimming in the sea
I like to go on beyond the white breakers,
where a man can still be free
Or a woman if you are one
I like swimming in the sea
Yeah
