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
Rocking back and forth somewhere
If you knew, if you saw
You'd have said it was the final straw
There my life was bound and
Tethered on a porch by the shore
But there's no no no no no
Easy way to tell one so
The things you know
And run run run run run
When they say they think they know exactly so
It's not right, it's not right
How am I the only one who sees a fight?
What are we? Who are they?
Who says those bastards don't deserve to pay?
"Well it's the numbers, it's the numbers; we don't stand a chance
So long as they're 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 being funny
Makes you feel like up and running
When your past lingers like rainclouds
Casting shadows below
I could live with so many burdens
I'd take all your hurt and yearning
But there's no way I'll let 'em take me for their petty little woes
Oh I used to glow glow glow glow glow
Once I had a love to show, a love they'd know
But they're slow slow slow slow slow
So slow that they'd never know of where I'd go
It's not right, it's not right
How am I the only one who sees a fight?
What are we? Who are they?
Who says those bastards don't deserve to pay?
"Well it's the numbers, it's the numbers; we don't stand a chance
So long as they're 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 always something
I'm just working 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 a fight?
What are we? Who are they?
Who says those bastards don't deserve to pay?
"Well it's the numbers, it's the numbers; we don't stand a chance
So long as they're 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 was tied to a rocking chair
I was beat down to a pulp
Rocking back and forth somewhere
If you knew, if you saw
You'd have said it was the final straw

Tethered on a porch by the shore

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
