The Magic Gang Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nobody wants to listen
They said in time to get what I'm owed
Nobody thinks it's worth it
And I really wanna' know if it's alright
'Cause it's getting really hard to tell
I know I like to get it wrong from time to time
She's always there when I'm not
And never here to listen
Party drugs don't do anything
I don't know why I bother
And I really wanna' know if it's alright
'Cause it's getting really hard to tell
I know I like to get it wrong from time to time
But I think we're getting on so well
And I really wanna' know if it's alright
'Cause it's getting really hard to tell
I know I like to get it wrong from time to time
But I think we're getting on so well
But I think we're getting on so well
The Magic Gang's "Alright" conveys an emotional message about the challenges associated with pursuing one's dreams and the uncertainty it brings. The lyrics paint a picture of a person taking a step into the unknown, acknowledging that nobody is there to support them, and they are alone in their journey. Despite the odds, the person is determined to find the answers they seek and wonders if everything will turn out well.
The first verse highlights the lack of support and encouragement from others. The person's efforts are dismissed, and nobody believes in their potential. However, they refuse to give up and believe that their efforts will pay off eventually, even if they're worth it. The second verse is an internal monologue that shows the person's struggle with self-doubt and desperation. They question if their actions are justified, and if they are doing the right thing, yet they can't imagine stopping what they have started.
The chorus provides a sense of hope and optimism, despite the challenges faced. It questions whether the person's actions are justified and whether they are on the right path, but ultimately the person feels positive about their journey and the outcome. The repetition of the lines emphasizes the doubts and uncertainties the person faces, but there is also an underlying sense of conviction to keep going - it's worth the effort.
Overall, "Alright" by The Magic Gang is a great reminder of the challenges we face when pursuing our goals and dreams, but it also emphasizes the importance of persistence, self-belief, and determination to overcome them.

Take one step, see how it goes
Testing things out slowly and cautiously
Nobody wants to listen
Feeling unheard and ignored
They said in time to get what I'm owed
Being promised something in the future
Nobody thinks it's worth it
Others don't believe in the worth of one's efforts
And I really wanna' know if it's alright
Doubting if things are going well
'Cause it's getting really hard to tell
Becoming unsure of the situation
I know I like to get it wrong from time to time
Admitting to making mistakes occasionally
But I think we're getting on so well
Despite doubts, feeling positive about a relationship
She's always there when I'm not
Feeling unreliable compared to someone else
And never here to listen
Feeling unheard and unsupported
Party drugs don't do anything
Realizing that drugs don't solve problems
I don't know why I bother
Losing motivation and questioning the purpose
But I think we're getting on so well
Feeling positive about a relationship
And I really wanna' know if it's alright
Doubting if things are going well
'Cause it's getting really hard to tell
Becoming unsure of the situation
I know I like to get it wrong from time to time
Admitting to making mistakes occasionally
But I think we're getting on so well
Despite doubts, feeling positive about a relationship
