It's a beautiful day
Everything is goin' my way
Even the words are doing what I say
Oh babe, got to get away
To be impossible
Isn't that difficult
In the city you're invisible
When you come from a small town

Everything is alright
Everything is alright
I'm not your baby, please

Tourist in a traffic jam
Babycham and handicam
I'm not your mother, you're not my man
I'm not your baby
Don't treat me like I'm a trick
I won't treat you like you're a prick
Don't need no doctor, I'm not ill
I'm not your baby
Everything is alright, etc

Cut out the poetry
Let's hit the main artery
No time for a tourniquet
Let the colours all run out of me
You've brought me all kinds of goods
Now my heart is so full up it hurts
It's heavy as a shopping bag
Full of things I should give back

Everything is alright
Everything is alright
I'm not your baby, please

Not dizzy, just busy
Didn't drink nothing fizzy
No pills to feel easy
Don't know what got into me
Daylight a kinda robbery
The night is your geography
You're not white
You're pink and rosy
You could be right
But you're way above me

I'm in recovery
A star of pornography
I'm a tourist
There's a lot to see
You don't like the photographs of me
So, you've got a lot to say
You don't sleep around, but sometimes you stray
You don't believe
But oftentimes you pray for something
What is it babe?

Don't treat me like I'm a trick
I won't treat you like you're a prick
Don't need no doctor, I'm not sick
I'm not your baby
Everything is alright
Everything is alright
I'm not your baby

U2

U2 is an Irish rock band from Dublin, which started in post-punk but soon incorporated elements from various musical genres (funk, electronica, blues). Composed of Bono (vocals and guitar), The Edge (guitar, keyboards, and vocals), Adam Clayton (bass guitar), and Larry Mullen Jr (drums and percussion), the band is noted for a sound built on melodic instrumentals, and lyrics, filled with spiritual imagery, personal themes and sociopolitical concerns. U2 sold more than 150 million records worldwide, and created some of the most lavish, memorable and profitable concert tours in history. Their success also helped the bandmembers advocate for human rights and philanthropic causes.
