Alright Lyrics

We are young, we run green
Keep our teeth nice and clean
See our friends, see the sights
Feel alright

We wake up, we go out
Smoke a fag, put it out
See our friends, see the sights
Feel alright

Are we like you?
I can't be sure
Of the scene, as she turns
We are strange, in our worlds

But we are young, we get by
Can't go mad, ain't got time
Sleep around if we like
But we're alright

Got some cash, bought some wheels
Took it out 'cross the fields
Lost control, hit a wall
But we're alright

Are we like you?
I can't be sure
Of the scene, as she turns
We are strange, in our worlds

But we are young, we run green
Keep our teeth nice and clean
See our friends, see the sights
Feel alright

Are we like you?
I can't be sure
Of the scene, as she turns
We are strange, in our worlds

But we are young, we run green
Keep our teeth nice and clean
See our friends, see the sights
Feel alright

I am young. I run green(i am assuming this refers to marijuana). I keep my teeth nice and clean. I see my friends. And the sights. I am not the most popular person in the world, but I am no dork. I am not happy or sad...just alright.

i swear to god this sound could be about me. but it could probably be about everybody.

It's one of the worst Supergrass songs but it's still good.

oh and "lost control hit a wall, but we're alright!" is probably taken from the old idea that teens think they're invisible. It's true though

Pretty sure the word you wanted was "invincible"! And, yes, I agree.

My Opinion

I'm surprised there aren't more comments -- however, this is a very simple and very fun song about simply being YOUNG. The piano rift beats about anything that later served as a "youth anthem."

I've made a habit of listening to this song first-thing when I wake up (I'm an older lad now) and it makes me feel great about the ensuing day ahead.

I like this song.. it's good. and it was also in the movie Clueless.. I like this cuz I'm young and I get by.. it's a good song no matta what.. :) and yes it could be about everybody.. I'm not popular either or nor am I unpopular.. I'm just well liked I've got friends and that I need... no matta if there smart/dumb/not the best dressed.. it's what's inside that makes me a good friend not my clothes or money

judgiing from the lyrics alone (haven't heard the song yet, sorry in advance) it looks like a sort of "1979" before there ever was a "1979" a glorious teen anthem.

time for heroes is a schmuck. this is the ultimate teen anthem. "we wake up we go out smoke a fag put it out see our friends see the sights we're alright!" Oh yes!
