It's Not My Fault, I'm Happy

Sorry I couldn't be there, I was tied to a rocking chair

I was beat down to a pulp rockin' back and forth somewhere

If you knew, if you saw, you'd have said it was the final straw

That my life was bound and tethered on a porch by the shore

But there is no-no-no-no-no

Easy way to tell them so, the things you know

And run-run-run-run-run

Run they say, they think they know exactly so

It's not right, it's not right, how am I the only one who sees us fight?

What are we, who are they, who says those bastards don't deserve to pay?

Well it's enough, it's just enough 'cause we don't stand a chance

So long you stay around, you're just another song and dance

It's not fair, it's not fair, it's not fair, it's not fair

Still I'm the only one who seems to care

It's funny that bein' funny makes you feel like up and runnin'

When your past lingers like rainclouds, castin' shadows below

I could live with so many burns, I take all your hope and yearning

But there's no one I want to take me for that petty little rose

I used to glow-glow-glow-glow-glow

Once I had a love to show, a love they know

They're slow-slow-slow-slow-slow

So slow that they never know where I go

It's not right, it's not right, how am I the only one who sees us fight?

What are we, who are they, who says those bastards don't deserve to pay?

Well it's enough, it's just enough 'cause we don't stand a chance

So long you stay around, you're just another song and dance

It's not fair, it's not fair, it's not fair, it's not fair

Still I'm the only one who seems to care

I know that it's only something

I'm just workin' with what I've been given

It's not my fault, I'm happy

Don't call me crazy, I'm happy

It's not right, it's not right, how am I the only one who sees us fight?

What are we, who are they, who says those bastards don't deserve to pay?

Well it's enough, it's just enough 'cause we don't stand a chance

So long you stay around, you're just another song and dance

It's not fair, it's not fair, it's not fair, it's not fair

Still I'm the only one who seems to care
