Feel Good Inc.
Celia Pavey Lyrics

Well the city's breaking down on a camel's back
The city is starting to crumble under the weight of its own problems, just like a camel struggling to carry too much.

And they'll just have to go 'cos they don't know wack
The people causing these problems will eventually have to leave because they don't understand how to fix them.

So you fill the streets it's appealing to see
Despite the problems, the city is still bustling and visually attractive.

You won't get out of county, 'cos you're bad and free
The people responsible for the city's problems are free but also trapped - they won't leave the area, even if they could, because they enjoy causing problems.

You've got a new horizon it's ephemeral style
There is a sense of change on the horizon, but it is fleeting and temporary.

A melancholy town where they never smile
The city is a sad and gloomy place where people don't show happiness or joy.

And all you wanna hear is the message beep
People are so disconnected and lonely that they just want to hear a notification from their phone.

My dreams, they've got to kiss, because I don't get sleep, no
The singer is sacrificing sleep for their dreams, which they hope to achieve despite the difficult circumstances.

Windmill, windmill for the land
The windmill represents hope and positivity for the future.

Learn forever hand in hand
We can learn and grow together to overcome obstacles.

Take it all in on your stride
Keep moving forward and don't let setbacks stop you.

It is ticking, falling down
Time is moving forward and there is a sense of urgency to address the city's problems before it's too late.

Love forever, love is free
Love is powerful and transcendent, and doesn't have to cost anything.

Let's turn forever you and me
Let's aim for a long-lasting and positive future together.

Is everybody in?
Is everyone ready to work together towards a better tomorrow?

Don't stop, get it, get it
Don't give up, keep pushing forward and trying your best.

We are your captains in it
The singer is leading the charge towards change and positivity.

Steady, watch me navigate
Stay vigilant and follow the singer's lead.

So here is the thing
The singer is shifting to a new topic or point of emphasis.

No blue skies seen here
There is no clear horizon or optimistic view of the future.

All I know that this town is
The singer wants to emphasize their personal experience and perspective on the city they live in.

Nothin but tears and frowns
The city is full of sadness and despair.

We can go a place where we can feel good
There is still hope for a better future where people can feel happy and positive again.

Sunshine and happiness
The singer envisions a future full of warmth and joy.
