Feel good
Feel good
Feel good
Feel good

City's breaking down on a camel's back
They just have to go 'cause they don't know whack
And all you fill the streets it's appealing to see
They won't get out the county, 'cause they're bad and free
We've got a new horizon, it's ephemeral style
A melancholy town where we never smile
And all I wanna hear is the message beep
My dreams, they've got to kiss, 'cause I don't get sleep, no

Windmill, windmill for the land
Turn forever hand in hand
Take it all in on your stride
It is sinking, falling down
Love forever, love is free
Let's turn forever you and me
Windmill, windmill for the land
Is everybody in?

Laughing gas these hazmats and fast cats
We lining them up-a like ass cracks
Lay these ponies at the track
It's my white chocolate attack
Shit, I'm stepping in the heart of this here
Care bear bumping in the heart of this here
Now watch the way I gravitate
Ah ha ha ha
Yo, it's ghost town
This motown
With yo sound
You're in the place
You gonna bite the dust
Can't fight with us
'Cause Bradenton is in the place
So don't stop, get it, get it
Until you're Jet Ahead
Now watch the way I gravitate
Ah ha ha ha

Ha ha ha, oh
Feel good
Ha ha ha, oh
Feel good
Ha ha ha, oh
Feel good

Windmill, windmill for the land
Turn forever hand in hand
Take it all in on your stride
It is sinking, falling down
Love forever, love is free
Let's turn forever you and me
Windmill, windmill for the land
Is everybody in?

One, two, three, four

Don't stop, get it, get it
We the kings all up in this
Steady, watch me levitate
Ha ha ha ha
Don't stop, get it, get it
We the kings all up in this
Steady, watch me levitate
Ha ha ha ha

Feel good
Feel good

Overall Meaning

The song "Feel Good Inc" by We the Kings is a cover of the original song by the English virtual band, Gorillaz. The lyrics suggest an apocalyptic world where the city is breaking down on a camel's back and people are going, unaware of the impending catastrophic event. The streets are filled with people, but they won't leave the county because they are both bad and free. The singer wants to hear a message beep, indicating some form of human contact in a "melancholy town where we never smile." The lyrics suggest that the singer is not getting enough sleep, and they need to kiss their dreams.


The chorus of "Windmill, windmill for the land" suggests hope for the future, and the phrase "turn forever hand in hand" may suggest the singer's desire for human connection. The verses also paint a picture of innovation, with the use of new technology like "laughing gas" and a white chocolate attack. The singer seems to be aware of their mortality, as evidenced by the mention of sinking and falling down, and the need for love to be forever.


Overall, the lyrics of "Feel Good Inc" suggest a complex and somewhat dystopian world, where human connection and hope for the future are both both essential and elusive.
