Jealousy's a beast
When it rears its ugly head
No weapon can defeat it
Nothing will make it dead
You can hit the beast with sympathy
Or just show that you don't heed it
Or hit the beast with generosity
All these things just feed it
Zoom do do do doo...
It can kill your friends and family
Well, it can kill your whole hometown
Neither your success nor failure
Is enough to pull it down
So if, my friend, you ever find
You've accomplished all your dreams
Be prepared to be alone-
Jealousy's a beast, it seems
Zoom do do do doo...
Zoom do do do doo...
Jealousy's a beast
When it rears its ugly head
Jealousy's a beast
When it rears its ugly head
When it rears its ugly head
No weapon can defeat it
Nothing will make it dead
You can hit the beast with sympathy
Or just show that you don't heed it
Or hit the beast with generosity
All these things just feed it
Zoom do do do doo...
It can kill your friends and family
Well, it can kill your whole hometown
Neither your success nor failure
Is enough to pull it down
So if, my friend, you ever find
You've accomplished all your dreams
Be prepared to be alone-
Jealousy's a beast, it seems
Zoom do do do doo...
Zoom do do do doo...
Jealousy's a beast
When it rears its ugly head
Jealousy's a beast
When it rears its ugly head
