Lyrics for "Beautiful World" (Loose Leaf Tea Version) by Colin Hay:

My my my, it's a beautiful world

I like swimming in the sea

I like to go out beyond the white breakers

Where a man can be a man, 

Or a woman if you are one

I like swimming in the sea.

My my my, it's a beautiful world

I like drinking loose leaf tea

An Oregon Breakfast or a Magic Butterfly 

I wake up early, head out on a drive 

Out to the country, feeling quite free

Yeah, I like making my own tea.

My my my, it's a beautiful world

I like driving my own car

Roll the top down, I travel quite far

Enjoy a full moon Chai, stare at the stars

I like driving my own car.

And still this emptiness persists

Perhaps it's as good as it gets

When you've given up that coffee

and those nasty cigarettes

Now I try the Reading Nook Blend... No regrets

I watch the sun come up, I watch it as it sets

Yeah, it's as good as it gets.

My my my, it's a beautiful world

I like drinking loose leaf tea

A little Self Care Herbal, winding down the day

Makes me happy, in certain company

For now that's good enough for me

Yes, that's surely good enough for me.
