Good Feeling
Mikill Pane Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You're from the school of hard knocks, you're in uni now
But the first room you see looks awful and it stinks
And the state of the whole place forces you to think
I was meant to move into my student house
But the last tenant hasn't started moving out
And the guy who takes my rent didn't force him to be swift
Cause he's not a landlord, he's the lord of the friggin' sift
If I call he won't give a fuck about the problem is
Whenever we talked he was ever so withdrawn apart
From when he wanted to know how fast I deposited the cash
That's two months rent into his account
I have but had the goon done anything
About the man that still sees this as a place to live
When he's squatting like a woman does taking a piss - no
I spend my life taking similar answers
So I'm asking do I have to pay to live with this bastard
Yes cause it's the middle of the night, so we can't leave
Now I could throw a tantrum or I could throw a party
Life has been so crazy but I've got a good feeling
So I wanna share it but I'm new to this
I wanna fill my cup, lift it up to the ceiling
I don't really care who I do it with
Nearly change your mind because you ain't got very many mates
Lose the doubts because it never really matters
It's a student house
So there will definitely be crashes
That's what you tell yourself,
Oh you're such a wise kid
You're throwing your first party and the whole world's invited
You don't want thieves you're only ready to meet the minglers
Cause people take advantage,
Have you never been to Wimbledon?
You said that they can make your event public
Now you've got two weeks to make sure there's enough drink
And when you come back from picking up a few Stella's
The house really won't be big enough for two tenants - get it
But that's enough beer humor
Tomorrow can't come any sooner
The minute you wake up it's over
Like cricket from Avie on the sofa
Life has been so crazy but I've got a good feeling
So I wanna share it but I'm new to this
I wanna fill my cup, lift it up to the ceiling
I don't really care who I do it with
I hope they all come through for me
Even if they don't reply
I don't do this sort of thing usually
But I wanna know what it's like
I'll start the hype fam welcome
'Cause it doesn't happen over night
When I hit the parties I'll tell them:
Show me yours and I'll show you mine
Life has been so crazy but I've got a good feeling
So I wanna share it but I'm new to this
I wanna fill my cup, lift it up to the ceiling
I don't really care who I do it with
The lyrics to Mikill Pane's song "Good Feeling" tell the story of a young man who is moving into his student house, and encounters a number of challenges as he tries to settle in. He is faced with a dirty and unpleasant living situation, thanks to the previous tenant's failure to vacate the premises, and an unscrupulous landlord who values money more than his tenants' well-being. Despite these challenges, the singer decides to throw a party to celebrate his new living situation and share his "good feeling" with others, even if he doesn't have many friends.
Throughout the song, we see the singer wrestling with conflicting emotions. He is frustrated with his circumstances and the unresponsive people around him, but he is also filled with a sense of hope and optimism about his new phase of life. He recognizes the difficulties he is facing but chooses to embrace the unknown and make the most of his situation. The chorus, "Life has been so crazy but I've got a good feeling, so I wanna share it but I'm new to this, I wanna fill my cup, lift it up to the ceiling, I don't really care who I do it with," captures this sentiment perfectly.
Overall, "Good Feeling" is a song about perseverance, resilience, and the power of positivity in the face of adversity. It encourages listeners to embrace life's challenges, and to find joy and hope even in difficult circumstances.
Line by Line Meaning
You've just moved into your student house
You have recently moved into your new student accommodation
You're from the school of hard knocks, you're in uni now
You come from a background of tough experiences, but you are now attending university
But the first room you see looks awful and it stinks
Upon arriving at your new house, the first room you see is in a terrible condition and smells bad
And the state of the whole place forces you to think
The condition of the entire house makes you ponder
I was meant to move into my student house
Moving into the student house was always the plan
But the last tenant hasn't started moving out
The previous tenant has not yet vacated the premises
And the guy who takes my rent didn't force him to be swift
The person responsible for taking rent did not push the previous tenant to leave quickly
Cause he's not a landlord, he's the lord of the friggin' sift
The rent collector's primary motive is money, not being a responsible landlord
He's in it for the dough, he's got a dark side because of it
The rent collector is motivated by money and this has negative implications
If I call he won't give a fuck about the problem is
The rent collector will not care about any issues that you report
Whenever we talked he was ever so withdrawn apart
The rent collector was always aloof and distant in conversations
From when he wanted to know how fast I deposited the cash
Except for the time he enquired about the speed of cash transfer into his account
That's two months rent into his account
Two months' worth of rent has been paid to him
I have but had the goon done anything
The rent collector has not taken any action
About the man that still sees this as a place to live
The previous tenant still regards the house as his residence
When he's squatting like a woman does taking a piss - no
The previous tenant is squatting and taking advantage of the situation
I spend my life taking similar answers
This situation is not uncommon for me
So I'm asking do I have to pay to live with this bastard
Should I have to pay to live in a house with a difficult previous tenant?
Yes cause it's the middle of the night, so we can't leave
You have to pay the rent because it is too late to look for a new place in the middle of the night
Now I could throw a tantrum or I could throw a party
Instead of getting angry, you choose to throw a party
Life has been so crazy but I've got a good feeling
Despite everything, you have a positive outlook on life
So I wanna share it but I'm new to this
You want to share your positive attitude but you are inexperienced
I wanna fill my cup, lift it up to the ceiling
You want to celebrate and raise a glass to the sky
I don't really care who I do it with
You are willing to party with anyone
Nearly change your mind because you ain't got very many mates
You almost reconsider throwing a party because you don't have many friends
Lose the doubts because it never really matters
You decide to let go of your doubts because they don't really matter
It's a student house
You remind yourself that it's just a student house with low expectations
So there will definitely be crashes
You anticipate things going wrong, just like in any student house party
That's what you tell yourself,
This is what you keep telling yourself
Oh you're such a wise kid
You affirm your own wisdom and experience
You're throwing your first party and the whole world's invited
This is your first big party and you are inviting everyone
You don't want thieves you're only ready to meet the minglers
You mention that you don't want thieves and just want to meet social people
Cause people take advantage,
You are aware that some people may try to take advantage of the situation
Have you never been to Wimbledon?
You ask if the people you are talking to have never attended Wimbledon, a high-end tennis event
You said that they can make your event public
Someone has told you that they can promote your party publicly
Now you've got two weeks to make sure there's enough drink
You now have to prepare enough alcohol for the party in two weeks' time
And when you come back from picking up a few Stella's
When you return from getting some Stella Artois beer
The house really won't be big enough for two tenants - get it
The party will fill the house so much that it won't be able to accommodate anyone else
But that's enough beer humor
You acknowledge that the beer-related jokes have gotten old
Tomorrow can't come any sooner
You can't wait for tomorrow to arrive (the day of the party)
The minute you wake up it's over
The next day, the party will already be over and done with
Like cricket from Avie on the sofa
This refers to a cricket match played by a character named Avie on a sofa - suggesting the party was fun but short-lived
I hope they all come through for me
You hope all of your friends show up for the party
Even if they don't reply
You don't even need a response from them
I don't do this sort of thing usually
This isn't something you typically do
But I wanna know what it's like
You want to experience throwing a party
I'll start the hype fam welcome
You will start promoting and creating excitement for the party
'Cause it doesn't happen over night
You remind yourself that this kind of excitement and fun takes time to build
When I hit the parties I'll tell them:
In the future, you can tell others about the fun party you threw
Show me yours and I'll show you mine
This line is open to interpretation, but it could be suggesting that if people invite you to their parties, you'll invite them to your own in return
