It’s Probably Gonna Be Fine

Post by j$ »

by Johnny Cashpoint
Uses a drum sample from Yard Act's 'Petroleum'

In these awful times
Everything is fine
If you close your mind
To the shit you find

On your doorstep, there's
An angry grizzly bear
Who'll fix you with death stare
Walk on by, don't be scared.
Stroll on down the street
Be sure that you greet
All the people that you meet
Though they seem downbeat.

You have cash to burn
Right as the world turns
Money obsolete.
Act fast for a treat!

Baby, close your eyes
Please don't ask me why
You can hear my lies
But won't see me cry.

Dodge the baying mob
Of starving, angry yobs
Don't give them a dime
Now is not the time
It is Christmas Day
Buy gifts on the way, you
Reach the town square, where
you're killed by grizzly bear

You have cash to burn
Right as the world turns
So burn it, you will, freely
It's gonna be fine, probably ...

It's Probably Gonna Be Fine
Pigfarmer Jr

Things are feeling kind of scary
I can't see an easy way out
All my friends are telling me I've got to run

There's a weight that I must carry
It saps my strength, I'm starting to doubt
Can I stand the strain of what's to come?

It's probably gonna be just fine
Don't argue, try to change my mind
It's a scary time, you never know
Maybe we aren't destined to go to hell

People tell me I'm in trouble
But I don't know what I'm supposed to do
No-one's here to lend a helping hand

Feeling tense, I begin to struggle
Fear appears, it's right on cue
All alone, I prepare to make a stand

It's probably gonna be just fine
Don't argue, try to change my mind
It's a scary time, you never know
Maybe we aren't destined to go to hell

We must embrace pain and use it as fuel for our journey.
Damaged people are dangerous. They know they can survive.
Courage isn't always a roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day
Saying, "I will try again tomorrow!"

It's probably gonna be just fine
Don't argue, try to change my mind
It's a scary time, you never know
Maybe we aren't destined to go to hell

Starving bears on broken Ice
Flaming forests, blackened homes
Flooded valleys, barren fields
We fiddle while the planet burns

"Today I saw grass growing through cracks in the tarmac" (quoted from a testimony given at NEYM c.1985)

And in the end we’ll muddle through, some will survive
In the end it’s probably gonna be fine

Black shirts red hats zeds on doors
Strong man tells you who to fear
High school bullies on the world stage
The masses duped, I feel so alone

And in the end we’ll muddle through, some will survive
In the end it’s probably gonna be fine

"When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants and murderers, and for a time, they can seem invincible, but in the end, they always fall. Think of it--always" - sample from film Gandhi, 1982

I want to believe ... I want to believe ...

Strict divisions, black and white
Gold paved roads and tin board shacks
Biko’s freedom in a cell
Young me knows things can never change

And in the end we’ll muddle through, some will survive
In the end it’s probably gonna be fine
If we keep fighting
If we keep fighting

It's Probably Gonna Be Fine - Paco del Stinko

It's probably gonna be fine
I tell myself all the time
I hope I ain't lyin'
It's gonna be alright


I wind up down on the floor
And when I get up they show me the door
But now I'm standing and I am demanding
More than I had before

I used to talk in the negative
Until I got stabbed by a relative
It opened my flesh it opened my eyes
It let me see more than the price is right

Oh don't you know I go with the flow
Take a look at me I flow with the breeze


I hope it's tonight
It's gonna be alright
I hope it's tonight
Bringin' the stink since 2006.

Hard to believe right now
Can't say exactly how
It's probably gonna be fine

Carving our way to some distant future
No way to know what lies ahead
The stone is hard and there is no answer
Frozen lips on a magnet head

Hard to believe right now
Can't say exactly how
It's probably gonna be fine

Hard to believe right now
Can't say exactly how
It's probably gonna be fine

It's probably gonna be fine
It's probably gonna be fine

(a one and a 2 and a)
(its probably gonna be fine)
(its probably gonna be fine)
(its probably gonna be fine)

She said "you better watch your back"
She said "my friends will slit your neck"
She said "you better not sleep again"
She said "you'll never break another heart again"

(its probably gonna be fine)
(its probably gonna be fine)
(its probably gonna be fine)

I said "I'm calling the police"
I know she broke it as she screamed
She said "I'll tell your friends its true
you hit me, you left me black and blue"

(its probably gonna be fine)
(its probably gonna be fine)
(its probably gonna be fine)
It's probably gonna be fine, oh
(its probably gonna be fine)
(its probably gonna be fine)
(its probably gonna be fine)
It's probably gonna be fine, oh
(its probably gonna be fine)
(its probably gonna be fine)
(its probably gonna be fine)
