Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Who
Who am I to be blue?
Look at my family and fortune
Look at my friends and my house
[Verse 2]
Who
Who am I to feel deadened?
Who am I to feel spent?
Look at my health and my money
[Verse 3]
And where
Where do I go to feel good?
Why do I still look outside me?
Clearly I've seen it won't work
[Verse 4]
Is it my calling to keep on when I'm unable?
Is it my job to be selfless extraordinaire?
My generosity has been disabled
By this, my sense of duty to offer
[Verse 5]
Why
Why do I feel so ungrateful?
Me who is far beyond survival
Me who sees life as an oyster
[Verse 6]
Is it my calling to keep on when I'm unable?
Is it my job to be selfless extraordinaire?
My generosity has been disabled
By this, my sense of duty to offer
[Verse 7]
And how
How dare I rest on my laurels?
How dare I ignore an outstretched hand?
How dare I ignore a third world country?
[Verse 8]
Is it my calling to keep on when I'm unable?
Is it my job to be selfless extraordinaire?
My generosity has been disabled
By this, my sense of duty to offer
[Verse 9]
Who
Who am I to be blue?
