From the album Harmonicise, released January 2002.
Words: R. Hayes.

Take a quick look down when you step through the mess
Found a brown haired girl give me a sweet caress
Walk up to the bar and see your favourite girl sittin' with another man
Got a split lip asking what he's doing sittin' with my number one fan

(Chorus)
Cos things are alright, don't you see?
Do you know what it's like to be me?
Cos thing are alright, don't you watch?
Do you know you can take it that much?
Cos things are alright
Yeah things are alright
You know things are alright

Rearrange yourself and wipe the blood out of your nose
Gotta check out in the mirror what the guy did to your clothes
Get to the bar on a mission cos you've got a lot of catching up to do
You left your mates, straws bent, shotgunning bottles two by two

(Chorus)

Spent the last week waiting for this to come,
Now I'm here dunno where I've come from
Cos things are alright.

Caught the last bus home and fell asleep on the seat
Woke up in a girls lap, she was stroking my head and that's kinda neat
Missed my stop fell over and had to walk the eight miles home
Couldn't sleep, lay awake, dreaming wishing, thinking all along.

(Chorus)
