C
Yeah, it's the way we are
          G                     Am7
We were smoking by eleven and knocking
'round town
 C
Beat 'em ups on my arm

We were never good at selling,
couldn't cut down
And I stay with my father while
his friends die of heart attacks
He's got a heart made of stone,
but he never gets cold because
the sun's always on his back
"I used to think you were cool,
and I believed you had a wonderful vision
But I soon found out you're
a terrible friend,
and your mother's on the television"
Give's a go on your bike,
how you getting along with your life?
It's alright
Yeah, it's alright

Chorus

"Well I'm coming to the end of 23,"
she said, "Is that alright?"
"Well, it's coming to the end of you and me,"
she said, "Is that alright?"
And how can you complain about
life and talk about being bored?
If you just sit at Pete's house
playing video games, doing sniff
that you can't afford
I can't be picking up in the town
So get me one off Adam if he's sorting you out
I don't really care what all your
friends were about
I was always looking for a way to get out
It's just a reflection
on the size of your house
A silver spoon and a zoot in your mouth
But you're alright
Yeah, it's alright

Chorus

So here we are, it's quarter to 11,
we're knocking 'round town
Pushing in in the bar, you can cry until 11,
it's a quarter of an hour
And why stay if you hate it so much?
You think you're well cool
You just write about sex
and killing yourself
and how you hardly ever went to school
Don't you want to take me up in the clouds?
Pretend that I'm the one
and you can show me about
She was talking marriage, so we had to get out
Now he's making up for it by sleeping about
Your ultimatum's a ridiculous joke
I'm gonna pick that
option that allows me to smoke
But I'm alright
Yeah, it's alright
