Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Must be gettin' early
Clocks are runnin' late
Paint by number morning sky
Looks so phony
[Verse 2]
Dawn is breaking everywhere
Light a candle and curse the glare
Draw the curtains, I don't care 'cause
It's alright
[Verse 3]
I will get by
I will get by
I will get by
I will survive
[Verse 4]
I see you've got your list out
Well, say your piece and then get out
Yes, I've got the gist of it, but
It's alright
[Verse 5]
Sorry that you feel that way
The only thing there is to say
Every silver lining's got a
Touch of grey
[Verse 6]
I will get by
I will get by
I will get by
I will survive
[Verse 7]
It's a lesson to me
The ables and the fakers and disease
The A-B-Cs we all must face
To try to keep a little grey
[Verse 8]
It's a lesson to me
The deltas and the east stand to freeze
The A-B-Cs we all think of
Try and win a little love
[Verse 9]
I know the rent is in arrears
The dog has not been fed in years
It's even worse than it appears, but
It's alright
[Verse 10]
Cow is giving kerosene
Kid can't read, 17
The words he knows are all obscene, but
It's alright
[Verse 11]
I will get by
I will get by
I will get by
I will survive
[Verse 12]
Shoe is on the hand it fits
There's really nothing much to it
Just wheeze it through your teeth and spit 'cause
It's alright
[Verse 13]
Oh, well, a touch of grey
Kinda suits you anyway
It's really all I have to say, but
It's alright
[Verse 14]
I will get by
I will get by
I will get by
I will survive
[Verse 15]
We will get by
We will get by
We will get by
We will survive
[Verse 16]
We will get by
We will get by
We will get by
We will survive
