Happiness Is Easy (6 31) Lyrics

(Mark Hollis / Tim Friese-Greene)


Makes you feel much older
Sublime the blind parade

It wrecks me how they justify their acts of war
They assemble, they pray
Take good care of what the priests say
'After death it's so much fun'
Little sheep don't let your feet stray

	Happiness is easy
		Joy be written upon the earth
		And the sky above
		Jesus star that shines so bright
		Gather us in love

Guilt upon their shoulders
How well the cause evades
Infecting your religions, claiming pacts
It's easy to shoulder the blame

	Happiness is easy
		Little ships of Galilee
	Happiness is easy
		Standing on the sea
	Happiness is easy
		Jesus tried to love us all
	Happiness is easy
		Be a friend to me

Happiness is easy

Try to teach my children
To recognise excuse before it acts
>From love and conviction to pray
Take good care of what the priests say
'After death it's so much fun'
Little sheep don't let your feet stray

	Happiness is easy
		Little ships of Galilee
		Standing on the sea
		Jesus tried to love us all
		Be a friend to me

		Joy be written upon the earth
		And the sky above
		Jesus star that shines so bright
		Gather us in love
