I’m still doing fine That is what I say I get up when the alarm goes I answer when they call I keep the day in order I do not stop at all They tell me I look better They say I seem all right I say that I am sleeping I leave out every night I know the words I know the face I know exactly what to say dry studio sound] I’m still doing fine That is what I say I’m still doing fine Just not every day I’m still getting through I still turn up on time Everybody sees me standing So I must be doing fine I keep the small things moving The washing and the bills I talk about the weather I take the things they give They ask me how I manage I laugh and say I cope They like me more when I am easy They listen less when I don’t I know the words I know the part I know how not to make it hard I’m still doing fine That is what I say I’m still doing fine Just not every day I’m still getting through I still turn up on time Everybody sees me standing So I must be doing fine Do not tell me I am strong When you mean I did not fall Do not praise the way I carry What you never saw at all I am not asking you to fix it I am not asking you to stay I just want to tell the truth Without making it okay I’m still doing fine That is what I say I’m still doing fine But not in the same way I’m still getting through I still turn up on time Everybody sees me standing No, that does not mean I’m fine
