係笑 就笑看風雲 係插 就插褲袋
可恥到冒犯了地球人 但這顆心 仍要開
係信 就信你一成 係怕 就怕等待
腳步要left right left 衝衝衝
堅決面容 不改
Haha come on dear James
Oh life is just a game
修心養性 高高興興 同haters一齊品茗
Oh yeah come on dear James
身邊有好多對眼 分不清那邪或正
揮手企定 不必轉名改姓
Come on James
係懶 就懶理批評 係怯 就兩脅插刀
開燈照明蟲蟻自然來 別要失手 被嚇倒
係怪 就怪到非常 係喊 就喊口號
快樂有些代價 yeah yeah yeah
這個念頭 多好
Haha come on dear James
Oh life is just a game
修心養性 高高興興 同haters一齊品茗
Oh yeah come on dear James
身邊有好多對眼 分不清那邪或正
揮手企定 不必轉名改姓
Come on James
自創的旅程 不安天命 不想有人得逞
Haha come on dear James
人人來踩踩踩踩踩踩 都維持清醒
不需要停 只需要明 同haters一齊睇風景
Oh yeah come on dear James
You know that life is just a game

LYRICS
💙 Getting Away With It (All Messed Up) 💙

Are you aching for the blade?
That's ok, we're insured
Are you aching for the grave?
That's ok, we're insured

We're getting away with it all messed up
Getting away with it all messed up
That's the living

Daniel's saving Grace
She's out in deep water
Hope he's a good swimmer
Daniel plays his ace
Deep inside his temple
He knows how to serve her

We're getting away with it all messed up
Getting away with it all messed up
That's the living
We're getting away with it all messed up
Getting away with it all messed up
That's the living

Daniel drinks his weight
Drinks like Richard Burton
Dance like John Travolta
Now
Daniel's saving Grace
He was all but drowning
Now they live like dolphins

We're getting away with it all messed up
Getting away with it all messed up
That's the living
We're getting away with it all messed up
Getting away with it all messed up
That's the living

We're getting away with it all messed up
Getting away with it all messed up
That's the living
Oh, getting away with it all messed up
Getting away with it all messed up
That's the living

Getting away with it
We're getting away with it
That's the living
That's the living

Love it! How did these guys not become huge? Like really huge like REM or U2! This is just one of many awesome songs by them.

“Fear is a mans best friend”. Never a truer word said. Oh Tim. Could listen to you speak (and sing) all day long. What charisma.

This is one of my favourite songs. I lived a crazy life at one time and this song really spoke to me. I’m much more grounded now, but, this song brings back good memories from a time when I was getting away with it all messed up. Money, women, booze .... all before the crash. I survived it and gained tremendous wisdom.

What I thought mattered during this time I now know does not. I’m not necessarily against it but I lost all grip on moderation and priority. I was chasing things that offered no long term fulfillment. It was about fleeting instant gratifications. So, if you wish to maintain or regain that good feeling you have to keep the lifestyle going - then you’re stuck in a cycle. Because nothing in my life provided fulfillment, It was merely beads of pleasure with strings of emptiness in between. Even how I made money didn’t feel like I was contributing to society. Everything was so shallow. I wasn't without my positives. I made sure my ex, my child, and her child from before we met, were well taken care of and went to private schools - even after we broke up. But my own life was a mess.

Long term fulfillment seems to involve two things: progressing in skill as a function of doing something you like and being in service to others. What I think matters: you like what you do, you are getting better at it, it helps yourself to progress to something better, and it, or some of the proceeds, help others. Being part of a community is big especially if your job isn't that fulfilling. That way, you can mentally recalibrate your perspective of your work so as a necessary means to reach positive outcomes; your family & community work. Hopefully, someone reads this and learn what learned the hard way.

I only discovered this song last week at a James tribute night. They played this last, it was super emotional linking arms with my brothers all singing along. I love the way songs can suddenly mean so much to me out of nowhere and this has become one of them.
Amazing song 🎼💜🙌🏽

Ryba Zfrytkami

This song is on an elevated level of excellence. Truly exceptional.
