Calypso Lyrics by VARLEY

Smalltalk & DMCs

2021

[Verse 1]
You got a chip on your shoulder
'Cause Dublin could not love ya
You got a mouth that matches the accent
Beat up, broke down, so fractured
And I know 'cause I've been there, too
You say there's no way I could know what you're going through
But I know, 'cause I've been there
Yeah, I know, yeah, I know

[Chorus]
The Romans didn't build it all in one day
One day you will wake up and be okay
If I could take it all away, you know what I'd say
One day you will wake up and be okay, you'll be okay

[Post-Chorus]
You'll be okay

[Verse 2]
You want a life like the movies
Thought you'd achieve all of your dreams in your twenties
But had to lеarn the leads are only for thе actors
Your beat up, broke down, so fractured
And I know 'cause I've been there, too
You say there's no way I could know what you're going through
But I know, 'cause I've been there
Yeah, I know, yeah, I know

[Chorus]
The Romans didn't build it all in one day
One day you will wake up and be okay
If I could take it all away, you know what I'd say
One day you will wake up and be okay, you'll be okay

[Bridge]
Nothing's ever as it seems
In the big TV
It just looks easy
Maybe they're just as sad as you and me
No, it's never as it seems (No, it's never as it seems)
In the big TVs (In the big TVs)
It just looks easy, yeah

[Chorus]
The Romans didn't build it all in one day (One day, one day)
One day you will wake up and be okay (One day, one day)
If I could take it all away, you know what I'd say (If I could take it all away, you know what I'd say)
One day you will wake up and be okay (You'll be okay)

[Outro]
One day you'll be okay
You'll be okay
You'll be okay
One day you will wake up and be okay
