Текст песни: All for the Best + перевод

(Rejoice, rejoice! And be exceedingly glad

For great is your reward… in Heaven.)

When you feel sad, or under a curse

Your life is bad, your prospects are worse

Your wife is sighing, crying

And your olive tree is dying

Temples are graying and teeth are decaying

And creditors weighing your purse

Your mood and your robe are both a deep blue

You’d bet that Job had nothing on you

Don’t forget that when you go to heaven you’ll be blessed

Yes, it’s all for the best!

Some men are born to live at ease, doing what they please

Richer than the bees are with honey

Never growing old, never feeling cold

Pulling pots of gold from thin air

The best in every town, best at shaking down

Best at making mountains of money

They can’t take it with them, but what do they care?

They get the center of the meat, cusions of the seat

Houses in the street where it’s sunny

Summers at the beach, winters warm and free

All of this and we get the rest

But who is the land for, the sun and the sand for?

You guessed! It’s all for the best!

Now, how can you look at a speak of sawdust in your brother’s eye

When all the time, there’s a great plank in your own?

I don’t know, how can you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s

Eye when all the time there’s a great plank stickin' out of your own?

Or, how can you take the speck of sawdust out of your brother’s eye

When all the time there’s a great plank in your own?

I don’t know! How canyou take the speck of sawdust out of your brother’s

Eye when all the time you got a great plank stickin' out of your own?

You hypocrite!

First take the plank out of your own eye, so that you can see clearly to

Take the speck of sawdust out of your brother’s!

Oooooooohhhhhhhhhh!!!

Yes! It’s all for the…

You must never be destressed!

Yes! It’s all for the…

All your wrongs will be redressed!

Yes! It’s all for the…

Someone’s got to be opressed!

Yes! It’s all for the best!
