Lazyboy - Desiderata
текст песни

You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars
And you have a right to be here, and wether or not it is clear to you
No doubt the universe is unfolding as it should, therefore be at peace with god
Whatever you conceive him to be, whatever your labors and aspirations
In the noisy confusion of life, keep peace with your soul

I try to be
I aspire to be
Oh, I wish to be happy
I try to be
I aspire to be
Oh I wish to be happy

Oh oh oh desiderata
Oh oh oh desiderata

As far as possible without surrender, be on good terms with all persons
Speak your truth quietly and clearly, and listen to the dull of the ignorant
They too have their stories
Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexatious to the sprit
If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter
For always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans
Keep interested in your career, however humble
It is a real possession in the forever changing fortunes of time

I try to be
I strive to be
Oh, I wish to be happy
I try to be
I strive to be
Oh, I wish to be happy

Oh oh oh desiderata
Oh oh oh desiderata

Be yourself especially do not fane affection
Nether be cynical about love
Take kindly the council of the years
Gracefully surrendering the things of youth
Nurture strength of sprit to shield you in sudden misfortune
But do not distress yourself with imaginings
Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness
Beyond wholesome discipline be gentle to yourself
With wanted sham drudgery and broken dreams

I try to be
I aspire to be
Oh, I wish to be happy

I try to be
I strive to be
Oh, I wish to be happy
I try to be
I strive to be
Oh, I wish to be happy

Oh oh oh desiderata
Oh oh oh desiderata

Oh oh oh desiderata
Oh oh oh desiderata

Go placidly amid the noise and the haste
And remember what peace there maybe in silence
