I’m fine
Get, get, get in line and settle down
Get in line and settle down

What’s your twenty?
(Do you copy?)
Where’s your brain?
(Do you copy?)
Checking in to check you out
Concerned about your whereabouts

Copy that
(Do you copy?)
You’re acting strange
(Do you copy?)
So tell me what is going on
So heavy I bet

I’m fine
(Nothing’s gonna knock this girl down)
I’m hella positive for real I’m all good, no
I’m fine
(And nothing’s gonna knock this girl down)
It’s kind of complicated that’s for sure

But you can see it my eyes
You can read it on my lips
I’m trying to get a hold on this
And I really mean it this time
And you know it’s such a trip
Don’t get me started
I’m trying to get a hold on this

Get, get, get in line and settle down
Get in line and settle down

No big deal
(I can handle it)
It’ll bounce off me
(I can handle it)
Been around the block before
Doesn’t matter anymore

Here we go again
(Are you kidding me?)
Are you insane?
(Are you kidding me?)
Underneath the avalanche, so heavy again

I’m fine
(Nothing’s gonna knock this girl down)
I’m hella positive for real I’m all good, no
I’m fine
(And nothing’s gonna knock this girl down)
It’s kind of complicated that’s for sure

But you can see it my eyes
You can read it on my lips
I’m trying to get a hold on this
And I really mean it this time
And you know it’s such a trip
Don’t get me started
I’m trying to get a hold on this

Get, get, get in line and settle down
Get in line and settle down

Gotcha 10-4 lover, lover, lover, lover
Gotcha 10-4 lover, lover, lover, lover
Gotcha 10-4 lover (Are you crazy?)
Gotcha 10-4 lover (Am I?)

I’m a rough and tough
I’m a rough and tough
Nothing’s gonna knock this girl down
I’m a rough and tough
I’m a rough and tough
Nothing’s gonna knock this girl down

But you can see it my eyes
You can read it on my lips
I’m trying to get a hold on this
And I really mean it this time
And you know it’s such a trip
Don’t get me started
I’m trying to get a hold on this

Gotta get a hold on this
Trying to get a hold on this
Don’t get me started
Trying to get a hold on this

Get, get, get in line and settle down
Get in line and settle down
Get, get, get in line and settle down
Get in line and settle down

I gave my things away,
I called the people that I only see on holidays,
This next year's gonna burn a hole in me.

I spend my weekdays in my car,
And the weekends drinking hard enough for two.
I think I'll settle down one of these days
Till I catch my breath,
I feel the weight of the world on my back,
But I'm not feeling sick to death.

'Cause I laid awake in bed, and thought of better times.
I never want to sleep, 'cause I found apathy
I'm laying down and never waking up, never waking up.

I learned a lot today,
'Cause there's a reason why I'll never live the easy way.
I'm trying to be real.
I wrote down words inside my arm
That say I'll never walk alone 'cause I'll get tired.
I know I'll have my friends in every way,
So I caught my breath and for the first time I found what I'm looking for.

I laid awake in bed, and thought of better times.
I never want to sleep, 'cause I found apathy.
In laying down and never waking up, never waking up.

I laid awake in bed, and thought of better times.
I never want to sleep, 'cause I found apathy
In laying down and never waking up, never waking up.

Yeah, I went down.
Yeah, I found the way,
In the city where my father was born.
I had a dream I moved out West.
I finally found out what I wanted to be,
So I picked up where I left,
And I waited two more years,
(waited two more years)
And covered up my ears.
(and covered up my ears)
I think I'm ready to sing this time,
(I think I'm ready to sing)
I think I'm ready to sing this time.
I really think I'm gone...

I laid awake in bed, and thought of better times.
I never want to sleep, 'cause I found apathy
In laying down and never waking up, never waking up.

I laid awake in bed, and thought of better times.
I never want to sleep, 'cause I found apathy
In laying down and never waking up, never waking up.

You dont move from that graceful pose
and I never want to close my eyes.
Every move that I
make is phoney,
and every word I say is lies.
Settle down.
You never want to see me drown.
Settle down.
You never want to see me drown.
You dont move from that graceful pose.
You see all my mistakes.
You learn from my mistakes.
Every move that I make is phoney.
And every word I say
just makes me wanna
take you down.
You never want to see me drown.
Settle down.
You never want to see me drown.
And if you move, Im following you
wherever you go.
Settle down.
You never want to see me drown.
Settle down.
You never want to see me drown.
Oh no.

Brimming with useless information,
Spilling thoughts void of true opinion,
Yet you'll fight it to the death,
You'll fight it to the death.

Fighting someone else's favour,
You'll regurgitate the words you heard on,
Radio two... Oh didn't you?

Stop throwing insults and crockery around,
We can all be constructive,
So settle down, settle down.

Oh, have your dire of needs a certain suitor,
What is open-minded to calmly digest the very question and...
And understand.

To look at things from many angles,
Construct and critique, without anger,
Even compromise... you'll never compromise.

Stop throwing insults and crockery around,
We can all be constructive,
So settle down, settle down.

Stop throwing insults and crockery around,
We can all be constructive,
So settle down, settle down.

Stop throwing insults and crockery around.

Stop throwing insults and crockery around,
We can all be constructive,
So settle down, settle down.

Stop throwing insults and crockery around,
We can all be constructive,
So settle down, settle down,
Settle down, settle down.

It was just a few years in the making now.
The two were locked in a heated dispute,
'Cause he was gone when she needed him more.
Then she could really ever let on to.

They were the poster perfect high school sweethearts,
But moving out can erase the time
The two had spent it on working it out and
Everybody knew that they were out of their minds.

Oh, you know you really need to settle down
And let it go.
You know you really need to settle down
You really need to let it go.

Consider this, he was moving on while
She was busy trying to pass the time
Between the previous and next nervous breakdown.
The girl had given up the love of her life.
And all the time that she was givin' up slowly
he didn't notice when she ran away
and when it came to finally letting him on
well this is every single word she'd say...

Oh, you know you really need to settle down
And let it go.
You know you really need to settle down
You really need to let it go.
For good, forget his lies -
The only way to save your life.
'Cause this is restitution
For the love you've thrown away.

Just say you left me like you could.
Although you said you never would.
Just say it's done, and be gone.

Just say you left me like you could.
Although you said you never would.
Just say it's done, and be gone.
Just say it's done, and be gone.

Let it go!
You know you really need to settle down
Let it go!
You know you really need to settle down
You really need to let it go.
For good, forget his lies,
The only way to save your life.
'Cause this is restitution
For the love you've thrown away.

You know you really need to settle down
You know you really need to settle down
You really need to let it go.
