Everything Will Be Alright
Everything will be alright this morning
Everything will be alright tonight
Everything will be alright this morning
Everything's gonna be alright
I caught some flak and it near had me buried
I stank of failure and it did me in
I was ready to crawl down in a bucket
Swim with the maggots of the garbage bin
Wait up!
Someone shouting from the skies up above me
I had to peek over the rim
Lo and behold! An angel before me
Singing the words of Carole King
When you're down, you've got a friend
Get up and sing, get up and sing!
You'll get shot at, some will shoot to kill
But who do you trust?
Get up brother, tell them all, sing it out with me now
Everything will be alright this morning
Everything will be alright tonight
Everything will be alright this morning
Everything's gonna be alright
Haters! Shut your faces
Lovers! Show me your grace
Haters! Haters gonna hate, but just give a little loving and you win them all over in the end
So in the end I had to get out of my slippers
Strap on the boots and join the fight
Two fingers in the air, a peace&love warrior
Superb weapon when applied just right
Call me naïve, call me dumb, call me old-fashioned
Go ahead, call me whatever you like
I've lost faith in words counterproductive
I believe in what beams baby
If the sky grows cloudy and dark
I'll build a fire, I'll build a fire
Winter, spring, come summer or fall
Remember these words
Get up sister, tell them all, sing it out with me now
Everything will be alright this morning
