This Is Fine

This Is Fine

This is fine

 

I met a girl a little while ago

Her name was Mary Teresa I swear

She said she lived in Alaska

Until her momma died

And now she lives with a drunk

And This Is Fine

 

She made me think about the friends I had

And all the love that seems to have come and gone

All the restless evenings, all of the sad goodbyes

And how we never seem to see

This Is Fine

 

Take a look out your front door

The ordinary man is doing fine

He dances in the sunshine

He even dances when it rains

And all he’s got to say is

This Is Fine

 

I love my family

The friends I’ve made and even

My stupid job

And if I go to Hell tomorrow

Just knowing you for a while

I got to tell ya darling

This Is Fine
