It's All Good
Paul Brandt Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I get paid peanuts oh what a life
I live for lottery tickets and Friday nights
And hoping that they count my vote right
But it's all good

In-laws, outlaws, baby cries
Three in the morning with bloodshot eyes
It's a lot more work than I realized
But it's all good

Sometimes it's hard to see the positive at all
Little things pile up till they're a lot
Stress and pressure builds and gets uncomfortable
Until you get your shorts tied in a knot
But it's all good

It's easy feeling like you've really lost control
When things fall all apart and come unwound
But you can stand all day just staring at the obstacles
Or you can try to find your way to get around

Now I love you and you love me
I ain't got much money, but I feel like a king
And even if I could, I wouldn't change a thing
Cause it's all good





I look at this big beautiful world and I just have to think
That it's all good

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Paul Brandt's song "It's All Good" tell the story of a person who is making the most of their less than ideal circumstances. The song emphasizes the idea that even when things are tough or not going according to plan, it's important to stay positive and find joy in the little things.


The first verse describes a person who is not making a lot of money and is living for the weekends when they can buy lottery tickets and hang out with friends. It also references the idea that their vote may not even count, which can be a commentary on the political climate or the person's own feelings of powerlessness. Despite these challenges, the refrain repeats throughout the song: "but it's all good."


The second verse describes the other struggles that the person is facing, such as dealing with in-laws, crying babies, and exhaustion from lack of sleep. Again, the refrain reinforces the idea that even when things are tough, it's important to maintain a positive attitude. The bridge of the song explores the idea that sometimes it's hard to see the good in a situation, and it may feel like everything is falling apart. However, the person can choose to focus on finding a solution instead of dwelling on the problem.


Finally, the last verse comes around to the idea that even if the person doesn't have much money, they are happy because they are in love. They wouldn't change anything about their life because they believe that "it's all good" and that the world is a beautiful place.


Overall, "It's All Good" is a song about finding happiness and contentment in the face of difficult circumstances. The lyrics emphasize the importance of staying positive, persisting through challenges, and finding joy in the little things.
