OK now

lyrics

I've had enough of ghosts, I don't wanna see no more
and I ain't gonna be your host, not even gonna try no more

Say hello to time and all his little friends,
with their distorted faces and cruel humerous taste
Say hello to time and all his little friends,
distorted faces, let's pretend to be wasted

Mama's not a sinner but I heard her angry cry
when I turned and I saw it there in her eye
Yeah, I saw that the truth is OK now
She looked away and laughed away the tremors of the past
'cause the things that we value much rarely last
longer than it takes for us to realise that it's OK now

Say hello to time and all his little friends,
with their distorted faces and cruel humerous taste
Say hello to time and all his little friends,
distorted faces, let's pretend to be wasted

Mama's not a shower but she showed me all the things that she knew
insignificant, yes, but true
and I learned that it's absolutely OK now
She showed me how to laugh away the things that I had done
so I could go so super far away and see how far to run
before I realised that it's far away but it's OK now

Say hello to time and all his little friends,
with their distorted faces and cruel humerous taste
Say hello to time and all his little friends,
distorted faces, they never end right now

His Mama was an author and his Papa was a thief
he lived her life in pages and he lived his underneath
the web of indecision, and the paper and the ink are OK now
He saw her lean away from the shadows of the page,
he stole her love away and he lives with her today
Now she writes about his smoky hair and life is OK now

Say hello to time and all his little friends,
with their distorted faces and cruel humerous taste
Say hello to time and all his little friends,
distorted faces, they never end
We're not the future but we're gonna get used to
We're the future but we're gonna get used to it
