Analysis of Everything's Okay
Throw a fear away today, everything's okay.
Let nothing dismay today, let nothing dismay.
Dance a lithe sashay today, everything's okay.
Let nothing waylay today, let nothing waylay.
Pick a fine bouquet today, everything's okay.
Let nothing delay today, let nothing delay.
Show a good display today, everything's okay.
Let nothing estray today, let nothing estray.
Give a droll touchT today, everything's okay.
Let nothing gainsay today, let nothing gainsay.
Make a big outlay today, everything's okay.
Let nothing repay today, let nothing repay.
Yell a glad hurray today, everything's okay.
Let nothing betray today, let nothing betray.
