We Feel Fine

Lyrics

Win, Michelangelo Then, Michelangelo Then to the picture show Drive hard, walk, walk, walk

When mimes mime All the time (We feel fine)

When it comes to dust As all things must

When all is fair In love and war (We feel fine)

When East is East And West is West And the twain shall never meet

When hearts beat as one When something's better left undone

When they hand it to us No matter what When we get just what we deserve (We feel fine) When skies are gray Have nothing to say When skies are blue Remind us of you (We feel fine)

When God's in his heaven All's right with the world When [French] When change is as good as a rest When foul is fair And fair is foul When scum rises to The surface of the pond When someone is just Doing their job We feel fine, oh yes We feel fine
