Float On
Embracing Life's Ups and Downs
Lyrics
I backed my car into a cop car the other day
The speaker had a car accident involving a police car.
Well, he just drove off, sometimes life's okay
The police officer didn't take any action, and life seems fine despite the incident.
I ran my mouth off a bit too much, oh, what did I say?
The speaker admits to talking too much and wonders about the consequences.
Well, you just laughed it off and it was all okay
The listener, possibly a friend, laughed off the speaker's words, resolving the situation.
And we'll all float on, okay
An expression of resilience and optimism, suggesting that despite difficulties, everything will be okay.
And we'll all float on, okay
-And we'll all float on, okay
-And we'll all float on anyway, well
Reiteration of the idea that things will be okay regardless.
A fake Jamaican took every last dime with that scam
A reference to a deception by a fake Jamaican resulting in financial loss.
It was worth it just to learn some sleight of hand
Despite the scam, the speaker sees value in the experience, possibly gaining knowledge.
Bad news comes, don't you worry even when it lands
A reminder not to worry when bad news arrives; it will eventually pass.
Good news will work its way to all them plans
Positive news will find its way to fulfill plans and expectations.
We both got fired on exactly the same day
Both the speaker and someone else experienced job termination on the same day.
Well, we'll float on, good news is on the way
Despite job loss, the speaker believes that good news is on the horizon.
And we'll all float on, okay
Reiteration of the theme of floating on, emphasizing resilience and optimism.
And we'll all float on, okay
-And we'll all float on, okay
-And we'll all float on, alright
-Already, we'll all float on

No, don't you worry, we'll all float on, alright
