From the recording Like a Viking
Choosing calm, charm, and adaptability as a response to chaos.
Lyrics
Spilled my coffee, missed my train
Sky looks moody, talkin’ rain again
Boss says “late,” I just tip my hat
No storm yet ever kept me flat
Meter’s blinkin’, wallet’s thin
Luck’s got holes I’m fallin’ in
Still I whistle while I take the hit
Ain’t no use in worryin’ a bit
I’ve learned to dance with what I can’t control
Turn a flat tire into rock and roll
No problem, that’s my creed
No rush, no fuss, no panic speed
When they say I’m wrong, I just out-charm ’em
Everything’s fine—no problem
Phone keeps buzzin’, plans unwind
I’m late to chaos, right on time
The world spins wild, but I don’t bow
I’m ridin’ the moment, here and now
I don’t chase calm, I let it find me
Good luck’s just peace of mind, see
No problem, smooth and light
Take what comes and keep it bright
If the sky falls down, I still out-charm ’em
Raise my glass—no problem
Some folks fight the storm to stay dry
I just laugh and let it clarify
Every drop that hits my coat
Writes a verse I didn’t know I wrote
Yeah, I dance with what I can’t control
Turn a flat tire into rock and roll
No problem, here we go
Breeze in my hair, rhythm below
When the world gets loud, I just disarm ’em
All good, my friend—no problem
