The Fortunate

Hey-ey, don't pay no mind

We are the second

You're minutes behind

So you say, "Yeah, I'm alright"

You are the fortunate all the time

Yeah, you are the fortunate

I've been looking for a way out

For something that isn't so cruel

Well I'm a little tired, you see

Complacent and miserable

I think you're missing out

I think you're dumbing it down

You're past the point of owning up to your words

There's no getting it by us now

So, if it's okay by you

Hey-ey, don't pay no mind

We are the second

You're minutes behind

So you say, "Yeah, I'm alright"

You are the fortunate all the time

So full of misadventure

And feelings insecure

Ooh, it's so easy

Push the pin

Fake the tense

And give us nothing more

And if it's okay by you

Hey-ey, don't pay no mind

We are the second

You're minutes behind

So you say, "Yeah, I'm alright"

You are the fortunate all the time

And if it's the one thing

That I've been sure of

Well it's okay

I know you've got the time

If it's all one in the same thing

Then I've been waiting for the fallout, we're history

But it's gone on for so long, so long

That I don't think you'll ever be the same

Hey, hey, don't pay no mind

We are the second

You're minutes behind

So you say, "Yeah, I'm alright"

You are the fortunate all the time

Ho-oh, ho-oh, yeah, pay no mind

We are the second

You're minutes behind

So you say, "Yeah, I'm alright"

You are the fortunate all the time

(Heyo, heyo, yeah, pay no mind)

Heyo, heyo (We are the second, you're minutes behind)

Heyo, heyo, heyo (So you say, "Yeah I'm alright")

Heyo, heyo, heyo (You are the fortunate all the time)
