Thing's ain't so bad

They sure could be better

Thing's ain't so good

But I'm sure it won't last

Storm clouds above

But I got my umbrella

I would if I could

I can't change the past.

[Chorus]

I'm on the up

My futures tomorrow

Why should I worry

All I've got to find

Is another sad someone

Who'll happily give me

Just enough loving

For their peace of mind.

Things are a drag

But I'll get it together

Things make you strange

But that's how it goes,

I always say sorry

So no one remembers

I caused the pain

When I struck the first blows.

[Chorus]

I'm on the up

My futures tomorrow

Why should I worry

All I've got to find

Is another sad someone

Who'll happily give me

Just enough loving

For their peace of mind.

Things ain't so good

But I'm not complaining

Things could be worse

I don't need to tell you

Hang out your washing

It's gonna start raining

Thunder clouds burst

So tell me whats new.

[Chorus]

I'm on the up

My futures tomorrow

Why should I worry

All I've got to find

Is another sad someone

Who'll happily give me

Just enough loving

For their peace of mind.
