Video: It's Fine by Reservoirs

Song (lyrics below) retelling true events of a crap week, but... it's fine! (i.e. the break-up, car clamping and car broken-into song)

 

LYRICS 

I'm going to retell (G) the week from hell (D) 
I don't expect bliss (A) but fortune gives me a miss (D) 
There's much more to life (G) than a bit of bad luck(D) , so I'll keep this smile (A) until things really start to suck (G) 
...

My boyfriend dumped me (E) last weekend (F#maj); he said it wasn't perfect (E) and he could not pretend (D), 
So now I've got no man (E) to see(F#maj); but that's ok (E) there's more time for meeee (A)

So it's fine (G); I'm living for me this time (D). 
He didn't treat me the best (A), I deserve nothing less (G) , so it's fine! (D)

I parked my car on Wednesday, got back to it with 5 minutes to spare, 
There was a man clamping my wheel; he took 150 from me OH what a deal!

But it's fine, money is money it's fine! 
I still got my health, why worry about wealth, so it's fine!

I went to my car on Sunday, the windows were shattered and the ste-re- o missing, 
I took a deep sigh and sat on the floor, and phoned up my mother with a hysteric roar that:

IT'S FINE, I've still got my loved ones it's fine! 
I'm still alive and oh I'll survive, cuz it's fine!

To cheer myself up I went to the pub, to watch the football with Rahul, 
United got smashed 6 goals to 1, bloody hell this week is one bad omen!

IT'S fine, football's a game, so it's fine! 
I've still got my friends and luck runs in trends so it's fine! 
OH I SAID I SAID I SAID IT'S FINE! 
Money is money it's fine! I still got my health why worry about weath so it's fine!
