Hold it down
Don't let it go and slip through your fingers now
And it's today's routine
That pushes us around
So grin and bear it
'Cause nothing's gonna change if we always wear this
Same half smile that suits us for a while
But don't feel despair
'Cause everybody's walking there
And when the last whistle blows
Then everybody knows
The weight is off your shoulders so let go
[Chorus:]
Now it's OK now
The day is almost over so let's play now
So take it off your shoulders, it's OK now
The day is almost over so just wait
Oh now, take it down, yeah...
We find ourselves
Like numbers in a book on a dusty shelf
We exercise to better chase our wealth
But if you're fine, fall in line
I hope I'm not wasting all your precious time
So go find yours and I'll find mine
For those of you who feel like I do, then you should know, man
What we do for a while to get what we need
Buys time to allow us to k** this routine
[Chorus:]
Now it's OK now
The day is almost over so let's play now
So take it off your shoulders, it's OK now
The day is almost over so just wait
Oh now, take it down, yeah...
Let's hold on to our edge
Stay sharper than the system says
Let's hold on to our edge
Stay sharper than the system
Now it's O, now it's O, now it's O
Now it's O, now it's O, now it's O
[Chorus:]
Now it's OK now
The day is almost over so let's play now
So take it off your shoulders, it's OK now
The day is almost over so just wait
Oh now, take it down, yeah...
