Entry from This is Fine in Nur Ein XV.

Lyrics must include a contradiction.

LyricsShow lyrics

This song is about my nephew, Jonathan, who had spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) and passed away when he was 7 months old. The lyrical contradiction is singing a lullaby to a child about what he's going to be when he grows up (when he won't) and how everything will be fine (when it isn't).

This is Fine - Lucky Spoon

Close you eyes
Go to sleep
The day has been hard
Though you haven’t left you feet

Little child
Dream so sweet
Of all the great things
That you’ll grow up to be

A doctor. A lawyer.
A captain at sea
The places you’ll go
And the people you’ll meet
A simple designer who meets a nice girl
To share your adventure all over the world

Rest for now
You are strong
You’ll grow up so big
Like your dad and your mom

We love you
All the time
Don’t worry young one
You will turn out just fine

Your dreams are the clouds
That are fluffy and white
Then light up with color as
Day turns to night
They’ll take any problems
And make them all right
You’re special
My beautiful child
