Take it easy in your mind,
take it easy in your mind
Well, you wake up in the morning
and your hands are shakin'
and your nerves are all uptight
Your back is sore
and your head's splittin'
cause you ain't slept all night
You stumble to the kitchen,
you light that cigarette,
sit around hackin' coffee
Finish your coffee,
kiss your pretty little wife
and you're off
Honey, you gotta rush on
down to the office,
after all you're a big ol' wheel
And all that wheelin'
and all that dealin'
Is the biggest reason why you in
Cause the boss gets mad
when business is bad
And the pressure never seems to stop
If you ain't careful,
you're gonna blow your top
So take it easy in your mind
Just take it easy and you will find
That you'll live long and prosper
You'll get further down the line
If you'll just take it easy
Take your mind
Take it easy, take it slow
Enjoy the good life, it's yours you know
Well, if you've got a silver line
Then you can make your own sunshine
If you'll just take it easy in your mind
Take it easy in your mind
Take it easy in your mind
Well, your next door neighbors
went and bought a new car
one of them great big shiny ones
so you run downtown
getting one that's bigger
cuz you ain't about to be outdone
it's called keeping up
with the Joneses
that's a little game you play well
there's another bill son
you don't know how you're gonna pay
and you can't explain them headaches
big old bags underneath your
eyes you pay 35 an hour
get yourself psychoanalyzed
you lay there and tell that doctor
how your head's all in a mess
and what he tells you
Just take it easy in your mind
Just take it easy and you will find
And you'll live longer brother
And you'll get further down the line
If you'll just take it easy in your mind
Take it easy and take it slow
Enjoy the good life, it's yours you know
Well every cloud is silver lined
And you can make your own sunshine
If you'll just take it easy in your mind
Come on, come on
Take it easy in your mind
You better
Take it easy in your mind
Just take it easy in your mind
Just take it easy
Yeah, and you will find...
