It’s Alright Lyrics

[Verse 1: Chilli]
I don’t watch TV
Cause I can’t stand the news (That tragedy occurred)
It’s always bad news
It’s like havin’ a fortune
And now you ain’t got a dime (He lost everything)
It’s all bad news
Talk shows show us how sick some people can be
(Next on Jerry Spr…)
But I don’t let that bother me
I keep my eyes to the sky
And God in my life
So, it don’t bother me
It's alright

[Chorus]
It’s alright
Let's party tonight
We’re gonna have a good time
Let's just party on
Till the break of dawn
We’re gonna have a good time
Cause it’s alright

[Verse 2: Chilli]
I can’t lose my mind
Cause if I do (don't shoot)
Party over, oops out of time
Thoughts of war
Hangin’ in my mind (Is the mission in Iraq)
Party over, oops out of time
We’ll see the day
Races are broken
Talks of war no more
Graduation rates so high
Nobody’s a fool
Now that’s some good news
It's alright
[Chorus]
It’s alright
Let's party tonight
We’re gonna have a good time
Let's just party on
Till the break of dawn
We’re gonna have a good time
Cause it’s alright

[Verse 3: Left Eye]
Wanna dance with a cutie
In the pale moonlight
It’s my duty
Shake it tutti fresh and fruity
Sweet like candy ass
Make a pass for the booty
I fantasize interludes
When I’m in the mood
Get me in the nude

No time to rewind
When the bass line rides for two
Feel me in the groove
I rock on and on till the break of dawn
Feet don’t stop me now come and sing along
As I catch repped it with a two step
Pop that foot in hard
Time to break a sweat
Let it play Mr. DJ
Stimulatin’ on the floor
Till I can’t dance no more
Gotta react
If the club is packed
Where the party’s at?
It’s Left Eye at the back door (back door)
[Chorus]
It’s alright
Let's party tonight (Toni-ii-iight)
We’re gonna have a good time (Oh yeah)
Let's just party on
Till the break of dawn
We’re gonna have a good time
It’s alright
It’s alright
Let's party tonight (Ohh, ohh ohh)
We’re gonna have a good time
Let's just party on
Till the break of dawn (Party on baby)
We’re gonna have a good time (We're gonna have a good time!)
Cause it’s alright

[Outro]
Oh, oh, oh
Cause it's alright
Oh yeah, It's alright
Cause it's alright aye
Ooooooh ooooooh ooooooh ooooh
Ooooooh ooooooh ooooooh ooooh
Ooooooh ooooooh ooooooh ooooh

What did TLC say about "It's Alright"?
Genius Answer

In an interview with CyberTLC Chris, Dwight Reynolds said this:

The session [for another song] wasn’t going too great so I left and went home and created “It’s Alright”. Took me all of 2 hours to create! I brought it back before the session was over and Lisa was like “This is a smash, we gotta do it, etc….” So the next day we cut the record and finished the main parts. Tionne wasn’t there long, just long enough to do her parts. Chilli, Lisa, and Debra were there for the whole ride. The following day, Lisa was excited and said L.A. loves the song and would be stopping by.
