All Right
Hotel Motel Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

These days, go by so fast they run away
And I know that I drink too much
Yeah, I'm aware I smoke too much
But I don't care

I don't care

So when you see me in the streets

Don't look at me
Like I'm somebody you don't want to be
Cause I'm All Right all Right

So meet me in the streets it's where I'll be
Instead of going down come up with me
And we'll be all right all right

I know what you say when I'm not there
But I don't care

I know what you say when I'm not there
But I'm not scared
So when you see me in the streets
Don't look at me
Like I'm somebody you don't want to be
Cause I'm All Right all Right

And I can tell you all the things
That you don't know
But you won't ever understand, no no
And thats All Right

So when you see me in the streets
Don't look at me
Like I'm somebody you don't want to be
Cause I'm All Right all Right

These days, go by so fast they run away
And I know that I drink too much

Yeah, I'm aware I smoke too much
But I don't care

Line by Line Meaning

These days, go by so fast they run away
I feel like time is slipping away quickly

And I know that I drink too much
I am aware that I consume too much alcohol

Yeah, I'm aware I smoke too much
I acknowledge that I smoke excessively

But I don't care
However, I am still unbothered by it

I don't care
I am resolute in my stance

So when you see me in the streets
If you spot me outdoors

Don't look at me
Don't stare at me

Like I'm somebody you don't want to be
As if I am a person you would never like to become

Cause I'm All Right all Right
Because I am emotionally and physically fine and stable

So meet me in the streets it's where I'll be
Come and join me outside, that's where I will be

Instead of going down come up with me
Let's elevate our experience together

And we'll be all right all right
Both of us will be perfectly okay and satisfied

I know what you say when I'm not there
I am aware of the things you say behind my back

But I don't care
But the things you say do not affect me

But I'm not scared
In fact, I am not afraid of any negative opinions

And I can tell you all the things
I am able to explain to you everything

That you don't know
That you are unaware of

But you won't ever understand, no no
However, you will not be able to comprehend, regardless of what I say

And thats All Right
But I am fine with that situation
