Tekst piosenki 'Good Health & Happiness' wykonawcy Beans On Toast

You don't change the world, it changes you
I got a bit older, and long in the tooth
I been around the block a number of times
And I'm still trying to find a reasonable rhyme

I learnt to appreciate the bird in my hand
The elephant in my room, the monkey on my back
The canary in my coal mine is alive and kicking
We'd better act now while my heart's still beating

It's not always what you say, sometimes it's how you say it
It's not where you are, but it's where you're going to
The world outside the window's demanding the impossible
Well I just want whatever's best for you

Well I'm at it again, and it's no surprise
Pimping out my private life under the lights
A tune in my heart and my heart on my sleeve
Whistling a melody into the breeze

My thoughts and my feelings are jumbled in verse
I try to make some sense of it all come the chorus
But I'll keep on going 'til the going gets gone
I'm still trying to remember the words to that song

But it don't matter what you say, it matters what you do
It's not where you are, but it's where you want to be
Let them fuss and fight, if they think they'll fill they're pockets up
Let's only take what we need

And that is easy to say but what is it we need
I'll take good health and happiness
Both are important, neither can be bought
Our health is out of our hands and left to the Gods

And the secret of happiness is anyone's guess
One minute I know it, the next I forget
But I know it's out there on a familiar shore
And that's why I've been singing these songs for so long

But it don't matter what I sing, or who I'm singing to
As long as the road I'm on leads me back to you
My bird in my hand, my wife in my arms
Somewhere secure, safe and warm

Somewhere secure, safe and warm
Somewhere secure, safe and warm
Somewhere secure, safe and warm
