- The Fortunate Lyrics / with translationsHey, hey, don?t pay no mind
We are the second, you?re minutes behind
So you say, yeah, I?m alright
You are the fortunate all the time
Yeah, you are the fortunate
I?ve been looking for a way out
Something that isn?t so cruel
Well, I?m a little tired, you see
Complacent and miserable
I think you?re missing out
I think you?re dumbing it down
You?re past the point of holding up to your words
There?s no getting it by us now
So if it?s okay by you
Hey, don't pay no mind
We are the second, you?re minutes behind
So you say, yeah, I?m alright
You are the fortunate all the time
So full of this adventure and feelings insecure
We're so easy, push the pin, fake the tense
And give us nothing more
And if it?s okay by you
Hey, don't pay no mind
We are the second, you?re minutes behind
So you say, yeah, I?m alright
You are the fortunate all the time
And if it?s the one thing that I?ve been sure of
Well it's okay, I know you?ve got the time
If it?s all one and the same thing
Then I?ve been waiting for the fallout with history
But it?s got on for so long, so long
That I don?t think you?ll ever be the same
Hey, hey, don't pay no mind
We are the second, you?re minutes behind
So you say, yeah, I?m alright
You are the fortunate all the time
Hey, hey, oh yeah, pay no mind
We are the second, you?re minutes behind
So you say, yeah, I?m alright
You are the fortunate all the time
Hey, hey, oh yeah, pay no mind
We are the second, you?re minutes behind
So you say, yeah, I?m alright
You are the fortunate all the time
We are the second, you?re minutes behind
So you say, yeah, I?m alright
You are the fortunate all the time
Yeah, you are the fortunate
I?ve been looking for a way out
Something that isn?t so cruel
Well, I?m a little tired, you see
Complacent and miserable
I think you?re missing out
I think you?re dumbing it down
You?re past the point of holding up to your words
There?s no getting it by us now
So if it?s okay by you
Hey, don't pay no mind
We are the second, you?re minutes behind
So you say, yeah, I?m alright
You are the fortunate all the time
So full of this adventure and feelings insecure
We're so easy, push the pin, fake the tense
And give us nothing more
And if it?s okay by you
Hey, don't pay no mind
We are the second, you?re minutes behind
You are the fortunate all the time
And if it?s the one thing that I?ve been sure of
Well it's okay, I know you?ve got the time
If it?s all one and the same thing
Then I?ve been waiting for the fallout with history
But it?s got on for so long, so long
That I don?t think you?ll ever be the same
Hey, hey, don't pay no mind
We are the second, you?re minutes behind
So you say, yeah, I?m alright
You are the fortunate all the time
Hey, hey, oh yeah, pay no mind
We are the second, you?re minutes behind
So you say, yeah, I?m alright
You are the fortunate all the time
Hey, hey, oh yeah, pay no mind
We are the second, you?re minutes behind
So you say, yeah, I?m alright
You are the fortunate all the time
