Everything's fine in Kalamazoo.
Things will work out, they always do.

A girl name Pauline lives out on the east side.
She's payin' for school; she works at the bar.
A guy name Donny; he's out on the freeway.
He's praying to God so he'll fix his car.

Its always the same with me, you don't have to wonder.
I need here to help me see.

Everything's fine in Kalamazoo.
Things will work out, they always do.

The bus keeps on bustling, the train always moans,
And ten years from now we'll still be payin' off our loans.
Traffic lights keep on changing, and cars keep moving.
And everybody but me talks on cell phones.

Its always the same with me, mom and dad, you don't have to wonder.
I need here to help me see.

Everything's fine in Kalamazoo.
Things will work out, they always do.
