Lyrics The Remedy I Wont Worry

The Remedy (I Wont Worry) by Jason Mraz was inspired by a friend who was diagnosed with cancer. His friends positive attitude towards his illness inspired Mraz to write lyrics about living positively despite adversity.

I saw fireworks from the freeway
And behind closed eyes I cannot make them go away
Cause you were born on the fourth of july, freedom ring
Well something on the surface it stinks
I said something on the surface, well it kind of makes me nervous
Who says that you deserve this and what kind of god would serve this?
We will cure this dirty old disease
Well if you've got the poison I've got the remedy

The remedy is the experience
This is a dangerous liaison
I say the comedy is that its serious
This is a strange enough new play on words
I say the tragedy is how you're gonna spend
The rest of your nights with the light on
So shine the light on all of your friends
Well it all amounts to nothing in the end.

I--- I wont worry my life away. Hey, oh oh.
I--- I wont worry my life away. Hey, oh oh.


I heard two men talking on the radio
In a cross fire kind of new reality show
Uncovering the ways to plan the next big attack
They were counting down the days to stab the brother in the
Be right back after this, the unavoidable kiss,
Where the minty fresh death breath is sure to outlast
This catastrophy, dance with me
Because if you've got the poison, I've got the remedy
The remedy is the experience
This is a dangerous liaison
I say the comedy is that its serious
This is a strange enough new play on words
I say the tragedy is how you're gonna spend
The rest of your nights with the light on
So shine the light on all of your friends
Well it all amounts to nothing in the end.

I--- I wont worry my life away. Hey, oh oh.
I--- I wont worry my life away. Hey, oh oh.

When I fall in love I take my time
There's no need to hurry when I'm making up my mind
You can turn off the sun but I'm still gonna shine and I'll tell you why

I--- I wont worry my life away. Hey, oh oh.
I--- I wont worry my life away. Hey, oh oh.
