hand in my pocket

Singer:alanis morissette

i'm broke but i'm happy

i'm poor but i'm kind

i'm short but i'm healthy

yeah

i'm high but i'm grounded

i'm sane but i'm overwhelmed

i'm lost but i'm hopeful

baby

and what it all comes down to

is that everything's gonna be fine

fine

fine

'cause i've got one hand in my pocket

and the other one is giving a high five

i feel drunk but i'm sober

i'm young and i'm underpaid

i'm tired but i'm working

yeah

i care but i'm restless

i'm here but i'm really gone

i'm wrong and i'm sorry baby

and what it all comes down to

is that everything's gonna be quite alright

'cause i've got one hand in my pocket

and the other one is flicking a cigarette

and what it all comes down to

is that i haven't got it all figured out just yet

'cause i've got one hand in my pocket

and the other one is giving a peace sign

i'm free but i'm focused

i'm green but i'm wise

i'm hard but i'm friendly

baby

i'm sad but i'm laughing

i'm brave but i'm chickenshit

i'm sick but i'm pretty

baby

and what it all boils down to

is that no one's really got it figured out just yet

but i've got one hand in my pocket

and the other one is playing a piano

and what it all comes down to

my friends

yeah

is that everything is just fine

fine

fine

'cause i've got one hand in my pocket

and the other one is hailing a taxi cab
