Don’t mind the potatoes if the soup is good

 Don’t mind, don’t mind

 Don’t mind, don’t mind

Things don’t always work out like you thought they would

 Don’t mind, don’t mind

 Don’t mind, don’t mind

Change your world and make it better

It’s all inside your mind

Have some fun, a laugh or two

Try to treat each other kind

People in the world ain’t got enough to eat

 Don’t mind, don’t mind, don’t mind the potatoes

Some get shot or blown up, some get beat

 Don’t mind, don’t mind, don’t mind the potatoes

I got lucky, I get to play my rock’n’roll

 Dooooo—n’t mind, don’t mind the potatoes

It frees my mind

My body follows

Strips bare my heart and soul

I was scared and so unhappy just a few short weeks ago

 Don’t mind, don’t mind, don’t mind the potatoes

So cold and bleak and dreary

Hawk wind blew chill with snow

 Don’t mind, don’t mind, don’t mind the potatoes

But I managed to get lucky for the millionth time this year

 Dooooo—n’t mind, don’t mind the potatoes

I live in love, I’m loving life

I’m living without fear

I live in love, I’m loving life

I’m living without fear

Without fear

We humans could be happy if we only thought we could

Don’t mind the potatoes if the soup is good

Don’t mind the potatoes

Don’t mind the potatoes

Never mind those potatoes if the soup is good

Don’t mind the potatoes

Mmmn mmn good

Mmmn mmn good
