[Chorus]
Time's just a passin', everyone's fine if you ask 'em
Like we're pulling a fast one with our smiles
When it gets real bad, just raise your glass
We might as well laugh before we cry, oh, these crazy times

[Verse 1]
All the stores are closing early
Half the factories shut down
People are sleeping in the allies
'Cause we could only bail a couple out

[Pre-Chorus]
Talking heads on the TV try to tell us what to do
How do you separate the truth from the fake
'Cause man I ain't got a clue

[Chorus]
Time's just a passin', everyone's fine if you ask 'em
Like we're pulling a fast one with our smiles
When it gets real bad, just raise your glass
We might as well laugh before we cry, oh, these crazy times

[Verse 2]
I close my eyes and remember
The ones we lost last spring
Rising profits mix with goodness
Like that oil in the sea
[Chorus]
Time's just a passin', everyone's fine if you ask 'em
Like we're pulling a fast one with our smiles
When it gets real bad, just raise your glass
We might as well laugh before we cry, oh, these crazy times

[Outro]
I remember when but forget how long it's been
Since we all lived in peace but you can't just sit
And grieve the growing gap between
What we know and believe
