Lyrics:
I backed my car into a cop car the other day.
Well he just drove off, sometimes life's OK.
I ran my mouth off a bit too much, oh what did I say?
Well you just laughed it off, it was all OK.
And we'll all float on OK. And we'll all float on OK.
And we'll all float on OK. And we'll all float on anyway.
Well, a fake Jamaican took every last dime with that scam.
It was worth it just to learn some sleight of hand.
Bad news comes, don't you worry even when it lands.
Good news will work its way to all them plans.
We both got fired on exactly the same day.
Well we'll float on, good news is on the way.
And we'll all float on OK. And we'll all float on OK.
And we'll all float on OK. And we'll all float on.
Alright already, we'll all float on.
No don't you worry. We'll all float on.
Alright, already. We'll all float on.
Alright, don't worry. We'll all float on.
And we'll all float on.
Alright already, we'll all float on.
Alright, don't worry even if things end up a bit too heavy.
We'll all float on.
Alright already, we'll all float on.
Alright already, we'll all float on OK.
Don't worry, we'll all float on.
Even if things get heavy, we'll all float on.
Alright already, we'll all float on alright.
Don't you worry, we'll all float on.
We'll all float on.

This song is how an optimist feels when they mourn. This song brings back very strong feelings of pain and loss but also leaves room for hope that you will survive and thrive in the future. It is the best way to describe how it feels "when life gut punches you hard but you're still standing" to someone who hasn't experienced it. This is how I felt when I watched them bury my mother when I was a young teenager. This is how I felt when my 2 year old child needed open heart surgery. This is how I felt when I found out my wife and I will never have any more children. The pain this song conveys touches deeply my soul, and still leaves room for my unwaivering optimism.
Exactly 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
damn tha'ts heavy bro, hope your son is OK.
I hope you get the most happiness god can offer
@@jackchueh1231 He's almost 16, a very sweet young man, and will need more surgery before he becomes an adult. Luckily, I have a good job with good insurance, so all I have to do is make sure I take good care of him and prepare him for adulthood.
We'll all float on okay
When my dad passed, this was the last song he heard, so it's forever in my heart and his heart. I breakdown every time I hear it. Love you dad.
Nice
Amazing, Hold on to it. Sing it as loud as possible enjoy it
wow that's really sad
at least you can always remember him through this song
You'll float on okay
This song is so fucking bittersweet
Agreed
This song makes me feel like it’s a big, “ fuck you im gonna make it through this ,” kinda attitude and I love it so much
Jesus Christ died for your sins
Weird flex but ok?
We will
I don't see it as a fuck you as much as its TELLING you that everything will end up OK. It's a more positive perspective because you don't need the f/u.
YEAH YEAH 🤘🏻😁
I heard this song first when I was around 12, I didn't understand it, but the guitar got to me. A week ago I discovered it again and suddenly it makes a lot of sense, I really wish it didn't.
Helen hola
What did you get out of it?
It does hit kinda hard when we hear a song at a young age and bump to it because it sounds awesome, but rehear it later on and realize it's either depressing or hateful.
John Perry I get the opposite message from it actually. Life is a struggle for everyone most of the time, but there are those little rare, beautiful moments where you realize everything is going to end up okay. This song captures that
Forrest Deardorff preach
Suffered through addiction most of my adult life, proud to say I'm clean and floating on.
Proud of you 💕
I second that
Keep it going
Is that what it's about?
This song makes me feel kinda funny, it's like happiness but with a bit of melancholy and anxiety
Castro's Midnight Losers just anxiety for me.
JohnnyTheUnicorn same
JohnnyTheUnicorn ..that describes my overall emotional range towards life ☺️
finally words to describe the feels this song gives me...
seriously tho, what is that feeling called? only music can do it to me
I backed my tricycle into my neighbors Nissan altima, they told my mom, sometimes life is a bitch
Im alive ohhh!!!!!!,mmm.mmmm
And we'll all float On okay
XD :D you would!😂😂😂😂😆😁
S.E. Reeves 😂😂😂😂😂
ing mmm.mmm honorable, but primitive Float On" Semi fi"
I FINALLY FOUND IT
THE SONG WITH THE AWESOME GUITAR
Right!!!!!!
+Briana Gavin RIGHT!?!?!
+PoaTB87 lol don't laugh at me
Briana Gavin I didn't .I was agreeing with you. >.>
+PoaTB87 lol I know
Whenever I feel like my life is falling apart I listen to this song. I know that the lyrics are a lie and not everything turns out to be okay in the end but it gives me a certain sense of help that I can't find in any other song. Some days I'm happy other days I'm having a mental breakdown. On the bad days I have a certain playlist that I use to calm myself down when I get home from school. This song has been on here since the beginning and honestly I think it's a blessing that this song exists. I know no ones Goanna read this but for the people that do. I hope you have a good day
I did read this and the way you said it says it best. I am 39 years old and have been using this as a tool since the first day I heard it. Thank you for sharing, and know you, are not the only one who feels that way and needs this song. With that said "just float on" my unknown friend.
❤❤
The song's not a lie though. It's not saying everything's going to be alright. It's stating we're all going to float on. Truth is we can continue going through this crap storm called life, or let every bad thing crush us. Grieve for what needs to be grieved for at your own pace, but don't let life pass you by while you do so.
@@michaelhart1438I agree there buddy 😌
I think this song gave everyone a long lasting memory of something good that had happened in their past.
Nope just reminds me of PENNYWISE.
You'll FLOAT too
You'll FLOAT too
This song makes me think of my Marine brothers I served with in Iraq. I miss them.
@@caitlynnbrady3263 me too
Reminds me of driving out into the dusty country roads with my mom. I miss those times.
@@caitlynnbrady3263 we all float down here...
I was having a massive anxiety attack earlier, but listening to this song and singing along made me calm down :)
Same
M.G. I hope you’re doing better
I used to deal with the same stuff.
@@dracarys4767 how did you get out?
@@cfy666 Well for me, I was a total drug addict and a loser. I went to a detox, got clean and realized all my anxiety issues stemmed from a psyche issue caused by years of drug abuse. I'm a year clean now and no long have panic attacks.
he sounds like he's strung out, and having a really hard time containing all of his energy
Isn't that usual for musicians?
This song makes me feel like no matter what we've been through, we will all be okay
🥹 Even though life gets tough time continue and so should we.
I love this song. Makes me feel like everything is going to be okay.
Me too :)
TheAmazed5 it's because everything will be okay😄
TheAmazed5 agreed, it does! :)
Because it will be :)
You'll float too
my friend and I used to listen to this song all the time a couple years ago. he passed a way a year ago and this song really helped me get through it just fine. It reminded me that no matter what happens to him or me or anyone, we will "float on alright" in the end.
I'm so sorry to hear something like that. We'll all float on eventually, bro.
Grant Humphries stay strong for him and yourself. We all float on

Life is a mystery we lose people gain people all through life its beautiful in its own I know i have lost Alotta friends and it happens I feel your pain .
The whole "I ran my mouth off a bit too much" line really hits home for me
I can't relate to the sadness going on in the comments here the same way... I went through one of the roughest few months recently. My mom got separated from my family, my cat who's been my best friend and family through all my childhood had to be put down, and one of my best friends and love has been ignoring me for the past two months... But this song just reminds me of the fact that I am okay and will continue to be. I know that. Just wanted to share some hope guys... God bless
This song just reminds of being 5 and drumming on rock band
Best of luck to you my friend. don’t worry, we’ll all float on 🙃
How did things turn out? I’m in dire need of some hope
When I was younger, my father and mother were going through a divorce. They would keep this a secret between them and myself until they both decided they were ready to tell me. Before that day though, I would occasionally catch my father crying alone in his room with this song on from time to time. Being younger and all, I did not fully understand what was going on at the time and why he would be crying. I realized he was trying to find a reason to float on in those lonely nights. May we all float on okay.. :c
I hope everything is ok now

@@higgles9559 shut the fuck up.
@@higgles9559 you're probably an edgy atheist 5,4 kid that gets bullied and plays csgo all day
"You just laughed it off, it was all okay"
This song grabbed me by the heart and said be happy bitch
XD IKR
@@arthurame1185 when did he say that ?
Hahahaha 😂😂😂😂
I remember playing this song on rockband with all of my cousin's and my sinblings when i was 4 years old, good old times :')
Yea.....
+TheSouthernmarine25 And now a fourth one is out.
Andrew Ryan yay!
+tacos fur eva! I still do lol
This song was actually in guitar hero
This song begins sounding optimistic and reassuring, then transitions into sounding almost apathetic, desperate to convince itself that everything can be okay
I feel like there's a moral to the song: Even though bad things happen, we'll be okay.
Modest Mouse is fast becoming one of my favorite bands
the feels this gives me are something else. like I'm at peace/acceptance/happy but sad at the same time. Don't understand it
Air Heart its funny cuz i feel the same
Air Heart you will. Just let it happen.
To me it's like being depressed and hating yourself so fucking much, but knowing that someone loves you and you have to stay strong for them cuz they're facing just as much shit as you
That’s called nostalgia
Because you know it's a lie
my mom used to play this for me when i was younger and i would still find myself thinking about this song, a hauntingly beautiful masterpiece, almost 10 years longer i still love to hear this song, float on
Aww apparently this was in the running for The Office (US) theme tune
I found this song on rock band 2 and fell in love with it ever since
Same!!
Me too!
Same here HAHAHA
Jonathan Warburton LOL me too
Jonathan Warburton and loop fiasco stole it aswell and changed the lyrics a little. And now everyone thinks it was this guy stole the song.
This song always gets me in a better mood (:
Me to
same
it's the song i always trust to make everything better.
I desperately needed to hear this song. REPEAT.
i love these kinds of songs. theyre just the "it's all okay, nothing's wrong" songs. maybe one day ill make songs like these
Me too.
This song has calmed me down on several occasions. I appreciate the lyrics so much
You won't, but it's all okay anyway.
This song is not like that at all. It is more like: everything is fucked up, but you are gonna survive at least for a while more.
This is the song that should've played during the credits of the new IT movie
You know I didn't understand the concept of the song until I read the lyrics and as of now this song has given me hope that no matter how bad things are something good comes about. Thank you Modest Mouse for writing such an awesome song!!!❤❤❤
And on the way to Valhalla, we have found our way...
This song is very, VERY nostalgic for me. When I was younger, both of my parents would sing along to this song. I remember falling asleep to it. Brings me back to moments I can never get back after the divorce ❤️❤️❤️
"Pennywise the clown likes this video"
Georgie approves of this comment
Cheesy
Needed this in this corona pandemic
Some of the greatest memories in my teen years were made to this song. What a time it was to live in this era
This song makes me feel sad, but happy. Incredible.
i need to play this after finals, im a mess right now.
One year later and you're doing alright I'm sure. Some stupid test doesn't matter in the long run.
Strings N Stuff I learned that the hard way. I had so much finals, projects, papers, homework, home problems that I completely got exhausted and gave up completely at the time. I could've flunked and my parents could've got sent to court but luckily I got my shit together. It happened cuz I was basically a perfectionist and yea. Terrible times
This song makes me emotional but I love it
it reminds me of my dad and let's me know he's in a better place now.
Sorry if this wierd, but you're very pretty in your profile pic. Hope that's not wierd of me to say haha.
It's pretty weird, bro.
Jasper Bunting I wasn't talking to you.
I know. I was letting you know it was weird, and a little stalker-like. Kind of like someone who beats their dick to girls' profile pictures would say. I was trying to help you out.
It's funny that a song about the fact that we're all going to die can have such a happy vibe to it.
This makes me think of a road trip to California or Florida or something.
I shazamed this song on my trip to Cali and now I'm here.
Same
Listen to Ohio or Out of Gas by them then lol
Ewww. Florida
@@TehMorbidAtheist dont disrespect my state
When I get worried or stressed about something, this is the song I listen too and I always calm down
Hey, it's been 7 years since you've commented this, I hope you're doing okay and having a good day.
This is one of my favorite songs, I just love the message. The message I get from this is “y’know, sometimes life is actually good!”
This song is just so strange to me. It makes me feel happy, but it also makes me cry. Like I'm pushing out the bad to make room for the good.
this song makes me remember when I was younger, just watching videos with my cousins,, when life was that simple
aura Lane I feel you bro
Some people are here for the nostalgia,
Some are here because this song hits home on an emotional level,
And others are just here for that sick guitar.
I’m here for it all!
The music here sounds almost exactly like "The Show Goes On" by Lupe Fiasco. Anyone else notice?
Apollo_ Or does the song sound like float on instead?
Apollo_ "the show goes on" is sampling this song (inspiration)
+Julio Jones right
No. The other song sounds like float on
AND TAKE ME OUT BY FRANZ FERDINAND!!!
It’s good listening to this late at night alone in bed. The world feels so big. It gives me hope.
getting this tatted next week 😁
I finally figured out the bass part and oh my gosh it is so much fun to play! I first listened to this song with my dad in the car and my dad started singing it. I've never heard him sing with such passion before and now that I know how to play it I'm going to play it for him for his birthday.
This song makes me think of Milo Murphey's law. Like how everything goes wrong yet he still continues to live life.
I lost my mom and my dog within the first 6 months of 2020, pile that with all the bad stuff going on in the world this year and I've been at the end of my rope barely hanging on to life. This song hits different now than it ever did before.
This song is getting me through the crushing existential dread of isolation
when it's 2019 and ur just here cuz it's a great song ❣️
coastern memories
Yes bro
YEET
When its 2020 and it still makes me feel some type of way😭💖
This is the ultimate AA song 😂
YEEESSSS I FINALLY FOUND THIS SONG
Invader Gir cool name bro
thanks
Same from the video "My Pet Ducks"
Gorillaz 2d!!
Found this song on the radio, immediately searched it up on youtube so I could save it.
I have been listening to this band for fourteen years, ever since I was two. love em!
After hearing that amazing guitar riff in my head for almost a year, I finally found the song it was a part of.
I'm listening to this in a tornado right now
I listen to this song every morning I wake up :). This song gives me the strength and motivation to let me know everything will just be ALRIGHT. Also, who’s watching in 2018??
Absolutely love this BANGER suffered depression and anxiety for most of my life finally got on the otherside of it and this song helped
I've been trying to find this song,,,,for so long,,,, everytime I sung it in my head, it turned into the show goes on by lupe fiasco instead and i could never figure out the song. Salvation is here
this makes me happy
i was going to say the exact same thing :)
the brwn dem machine and color the yellow ,or didn:"T I tell you . ill , be back "
Always a good song for a bad day.
i love the fact that they put (awesome intro) in the intro
An well float on okey ....just like he said ...even when u have bad days ...there's always gonna be a bright side ...this song got me thru alot ...rock on modest mouse 🤘
As old as this song is, it is still amazing
This song makes me feel good after all the mess in my life. I will float on okay !!
The tune from the beginning is like a slow version of the tune in the show goes on by lupe fiasco.
Ben its a sample, lupe sampled this
+Ben lol. FFR
www.whosampled.com/
TheNeemaV Hey fuck off. Go read my comment again. I didn't use the word sample or steal or first or anything like that. I simply made an observation that it sounded similar. Please don't jump to conclusions, thanks.
+Ben ummmm....that's why it's funny. You said, and I quote. "The tune from the beginning is like a slow version of the tune in the show goes on by lupe fiasco".
It's funny because, that's literally (and obviously) what it is. Sampling means that the producer recorded the tune from the beginning and played it as a loop, building Lupe's track around it. He sped it up a bit because "the show goes on" is a much more high energy track.
If it sounds similar you should check your hearing. Because it's not similar. IT IS IDENTICAL
+TheNeemaV It's as if you said. "you know this yellow scrambly stuff they served with my breakfast tastes similar to unfertilized chicken embryos...just heated up a bit"
This song just nakes tear up. I sang this on guitar hero with the crew of the Bounty Ship. They were playing the instruments. The ship went down in Super Storm Sandy right after they left long Island and headed down the east coast. My daughter was on that ship but I had picked her up and she was saying her farewells to her ship mates. She wasn't on it when it went down . A new sailor, Claudine Christensen and The Captain were lost at sea. The captain was never found. I used this song like a prayer while they were searching for the crew. Most made it back alive but it was only because the coast guard were like guardian angels flying into the storm to find them. Thank you to all our heroic people. God bless you.
It's all right. We have all floated on... to this song page again.
Fav feel good song
I was searching a random video of pennywise saying "we all float" and this video pop up
Everything thing went better than expected
We all float on down here
To offset the depression and sadness here, thank you Rock Band 2 for my love and adoration of this song and this band as Modest Mouse is probably one of my fav bands of all time tbh imo.
"You'll float too" - Georgie, IT movie.
I backed my car into a cop car the other day
well he just drove off sometimes life's OK,
dylan gordon I ran my mouth of a bit too much oh what did I say
Well you just laughed it off it was all okay.
Jack Quinn And we'll all float on okay
x3
this is a great song, one of my favorites from this band
This song helps me through the hard times, sometimes I hate life, a lot of times. This song is nice
Sometimes, Red Dawn, Wolverines...Sometimes, Warhammer 40k Zerkerines....
This song triggers memories that are so unclear, but also clear. I'm unsure if I should enjoy it or not
First day of Senior yr today, hope it's better than the my other years. Love this song, starting off the day with a good note
How was it?
@@jaxprather6519 Mine did not go good
nowhere near as far as the name of this song. Thanks for walking us through the intro and the guitar and everything else. Great song
I heard this today - December 16, 2021. It made me have hope for 2022 to finally get better. 🤞🙏
This song is devoted to the City of Las Vegas. I always blast the shit out of this song after I drive the 15 north and make that turn to see the glistening question mark of a city arise from the desert floor in a dazzling grace of human construct.
The 'My Pet Ducks' video brought me here. Awesome song!
I remember hearing this song in high school in the early 2000s
In 2004, Modest Mouse decided to "Float On"! In 2024 they still do!
I use to get ptsd when listening to it, but I've recently have learned to love it. But every now and then I always have a little cry with it
The guitar´s riff is magic, perfect ;)
Sounds like Hollister
2020 and still love this song
I've literally listened to this song for a large majority of my life, discovered Modest Mouse three years ago, and today I just learned they made this song lmao
Q. Buenas épocas cuando el rock paria buenas bandas y buenos temas .. creo q fueron los últimos años . Hasta 2005 .y tuve la suerte d ser d esa época gracias Dios!!!!
Ah man I just re discovered this song and its the best
Out of every Modest Mouse song I've listened to, this is the ONLY one I actually like.
Ah, takes me back to the good old days of playing xbox 360 with the family, ever since my grandpa died I listen to this an did this on expert mode on rockband too.
I remember this was one of my favorite songs back in 7th grade. Damn I feel old as fuck saying that lol but those were good times.
And I was potty training my daughter when this song came out. She's now in college. So ya, I hear ya about feeling the age of a song.
When I had my near death experience and floated out of my body. Don’t worry we will all float on.
I have anxiety and i felt and still feel a little bit depressed and i feel like a disappointment to my parents and im used to being blamed for things all the time and i had suicidal thoughts, until i met my girlfriend who eventually told me all the things that made her depressed which were very similar to what i was depressed over and she told me she was suicidal but she said she was able to get through it all. I thought that if she can get through those things then so can i and im convinced i didnt meet her on accident, im glad she exists and is someone that makes me happy and i remind myself of that every day. This song describes this perfectly im glad it exists and is one of my favorites.
This song use to come on either before or after Keanes Somewhere only we know on VH1 back in 2005. I loved this song and the weird music video. Then in 2008 I got really heavy into this band. Isaac Brock is a lyrical genius and the band members, as they come and go, are all amazing. Don't stop your Modest Mouse listening here. I can seriously give you all like 50 hits to check out.
