HAND IN MY POCKET

Still on the topic of hands, I remembered one of my favorite songs, "Hand In My Pocket," by Alanis Morisette:





Hand in My Pocket by Alanis Morissette on Grooveshark



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 
'Cause 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
 
And what it all comes down to  

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

Is that I haven't got it all figured out just yet 
'Cause I've got one hand in my pocket  
And the other one 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 laughing 

 I'm brave but I'm chicken shit 
I'm sick but I'm pretty, baby
 
And what it all boils down to 

 Is that no one's really got it figured out just yet 'Cause I've got one hand in my pocket  
And the other one is playing a piano
 
And what it all comes down to my dear friends, yeah Is that everything is just fine fine fine 

'Cause I've got one hand in my pocket 
And the other one is hailing a taxi cab
