Send "Hand In My Pocket" ringtones to your cell

I'm broke but I'm happy
I'm poor but I'm kind
I'm short but I'm healthy, yeah
I'm high but I'm grounded
I'm sane but I'm overwhelmed
I'm lost but I'm hopeful, baby.

And what it all comes down to
Is that everything's gonna be fine, fine, fine
I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is giving a high five.

I feel drunk but I'm sober
I'm young and I'm underpaid
I'm tired but I'm working, yeah
I care but I'm restless
I'm here but I'm really gone
I'm wrong and I'm sorry, baby.

What it all comes down to
Is that everything's gonna be quite all right
I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is flicking a cigarette.

What it all comes down to
Is that I haven't got it all figured out just yet
I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other is giving the peace sign.

I'm free but I'm focused
I'm green but I'm wise
I'm hard but I'm friendly, baby
I'm sad but I'm laughin'
I'm brave but I'm chicken shit
I'm sick but I'm pretty baby.

What it all boils down to
Is that no one's really got it figured out just yet
I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other is playing the piano.

What it all comes down to, my friends
Is that everything is just fine, fine, fine
I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is hailing a taxi cab.
