VERSE 2
Alice, the world is full of ugly things that you can't change.
Pretend it's not that way, that's my idea of faith.
You can blow it off, and say there's good in nearly everyone.
Just give them all a chance, now let's give them all a chance.
CHORUS
Try not to think about it, Alice Childress.
Try not to think about it anymore.
Try not to think about it, Alice Childress.
Anymore, no not anymore.
