[Verse 1: Rou Reynolds]
This is the golden age
Business is booming
Keep your head down, son, and then soon, in time
You could be like me
In my luxury bunker under all the debris
You too can escape the world's problems 'cause
Fixing them's a fool's game
Just hoard wealth, insulate yourself, and no one else
Like some kind of twisted naked mole rat
See I'm a glass half-full kinda guy
Even if the water contains PFAS and E.coli
Business is expanding
We're gonna have a soft landing
Yeah, it's a bit hit and miss, but you can trust me on this
[Pre-Chorus: Rou Reynolds & Chris Batten]
I can hear the doubt in their delivery
I can hear the creaking of the hinge of history
I can see the future now
But they keep telling me-
[Chorus: Rou Reynolds, Chris Batten & Rory Clewlow, Rory Clewlow & Chris Batten]
It's okay
It's okay
It's okay
It's okay (It's okay, it's okay)
[Bridge: Rou Reynolds]
Yeah, I can relate
Yeah, I can relate
'Cause yeah
[Verse 2: Rou Reynolds]
When I was a little boy I used to dream of growing up and maximizing shareholder value
I used to throw stones over my head and not care who they hit or where they landed
'Cause stick and stones, they broke my bones
So it's only fair that I hurt you (The state of it)
We better acquire a taste for cockroach
'Cause they'll be all that survives, other than you
But you're a side salad that no one ordered
Though all the bread's been hoarded by those with hearts contorted
So you're gonna get eaten, and I've got the sugar to sweeten you up
[Pre-Chorus: Rou Reynolds & Chris Batten]
I can hear the doubt in their delivery
I can hear the creaking of the hinge of history
I can see the future now
But they keep telling me-
[Chorus: Rou Reynolds, Chris Batten & Rory Clewlow, Rory Clewlow & Chris Batten]
It's okay
It's okay
It's okay
It's okay (It's okay, it's okay)
[Bridge: Chris Batten & Rory Clewlow, Rou Reynolds]
Everything is alright
Thank you for letting me know
My plan is so watertight
I'm glad you feel in control
I just had dinner so world hunger's a myth
Why don't you come say hello?
[Chorus: Rou Reynolds, Chris Batten, Rory Clewlow, Rory Clewlow & Chris Batten]
It's okay (It's okay, it's okay)
It's okay (It's okay, it's okay)
It's okay
It's okay (It's okay, it's okay)
