Reviews:
Facts:
  • The cassette version of this track's album has an additional track following it. Side 1 is several minutes shorter than side 2. At the end of Side 1 (about 0:45 after "I'm So Worried"), Michael Palin states that there will be a "tiresome gap" before the tape ends. About 4:52 of silence ensue, followed at the very end by Eric Idle stating that the gap was over and the tape may be turned to side 2. (Stavro Arrgolus)
  • These lyrics are from the original, orchestral version on the 'Contractual Obligation Album'. There is a variation of it (The 'Country/Western' version) on the unreleased 'Hastily Cobbled Together..." album in which it's more obvious that Terry Jones is purposely trying to confuse the musicians as to when he will restart the song during the pauses near the end. Different musical style, same lyrics with verses switched around. Hysterical. (Stavro Arrgolus)
  • Song Lyrics:
    I'm so worried about what's happening today
    in the Middle East, you know
    And I'm worried about the baggage retrieval
    system they've got at Heathrow

    I'm so worried about the fashions today
    I don't think they're good for your feet
    And I'm so worried about the shows on TV
    that sometimes they want to repeat

    I'm so worried about what's happening today, you know
    And I'm worried about the baggage retrieval
    system they've got at Heathrow

    I'm so worried about my hair falling out
    and the state of the world today
    And I'm so worried about being so full of doubt
    about everything, anyway

    I'm so worried about modern technology
    I'm so worried about all the things that they dump in the sea
    I'm so worried about it,
    worried about it,
    worried, worried, worried

    I'm so worried about everything that can go wrong
    I'm so worried about whether people like this song
    I'm so worried about this very next verse
    It isn't the best that I've got
    And I'm so worried about whether I should go on
    or whether I shouldn't just stop

    (pause)

    I'm worried about whether I ought to have stopped
    And I'm worried because it's the sort of thing I ought to know
    And I'm worried about the baggage retrieval
    system they've got at Heathrow

    (pause)

    I'm so worried about whether I should have stopped then
    I'm so worried that I'm driving everyone 'round the bend
    I'm worried about the baggage retrieval
    system they've got at Heathrow!
    (sobs)
