Feel Good Inc.
Jack The Envious Lyrics

City's breaking down on a camel's back
The city is crumbling and falling apart.

They just have to go 'cause they don't know whack
People are leaving the city because they have no hope for its future.

So while you fill the streets, it's appealing to see
Even though the city is in disarray, it's still attracting people.

You won't get undercounted 'cause you're damned and free
People who stay in the city are marginalized but still have freedom.

You got a new horizon, it's ephemeral style
There is a fleeting sense of hope and change in the city.

A melancholy town where we never smile
The city is a sad and unhappy place.

And all I wanna hear is the message beep
The singer wants a specific kind of communication.

My dreams, they got her kissing, 'cause I don't get sleep, no
The artist is anxious and has trouble sleeping.

Windmill
The artist shifts to a new focus, a windmill.

Windmill for the land
The artist evokes an image of a windmill in the landscape.

Turn forever hand in hand
The windmill turns constantly with the help of human hands.

Take it all in on your stride
One should accept life's challenges gracefully.

It is ticking, falling down
The windmill is old and in disrepair.

Love forever, love has freely
Love is a constant and freely given emotion.

Turned forever you and me
Love is what connects us all.

Windmill
Back to the windmill image.

Is everybody in?
The artist invites everyone to participate in this vision of hope and love.

Laughin' gas these hazmats, fast cats
The singer returns to the chaos of the city, where toxic gases and fast cars abound.

Linin' 'em up like ass cracks
People are being treated as disposable and lined up as if they were nothing.

Play these ponies at the track
People are being exploited and made to compete like horses in a race.

It's my chocolate attack
The artist is declaring their own rebellion against this broken system.

Shit, I'm steppin' in the heart of this here
The artist is taking a stand and getting involved in the struggle.

Care bear rappin' in harder this year
The singer is using a cute metaphor to describe their fierce determination.

Watch me as I gravitate, ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
The artist is confident and unafraid as they move towards their goal.

Yo, we gon' ghost town this Motown
The singer envisions a future where the city is abandoned.

With yo' sound, you in the blink
The singer is challenging their opponents to try to compete with their own sound.

Gon' bite the dust, can't fight with us
The opposition will fail and be defeated.

With yo' sound, you kill the Inc.
The opposition threatens to destroy the very thing that makes the city unique.

So don't stop, get it, get it
The artist urges everyone to keep pushing and fighting.

Until you're cheddar head
Success will come in the form of financial security.

And watch the way I navigate, ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
The singer is confident and determined in their own unique approach to the situation.

Don't stop, get it, get it
The same refrain as before, urging everyone to keep going.

Peep how your captain's in it, steady
The artist is a leader who is committed to staying the course.

Watch me navigate, ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
The artist is confident and unyielding in their dedication to the cause.

Watch me as I fucking navigate, ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
A more forceful, explicit version of the same sentiment.
