They Might Be Giants - Why Must I Be Sad? lyrics

No more mister nice guy I love the dead I've been thinking about it Now i understand what he said Ask me now I understand the words that alice said I kick the rocks beneath me I squint at the sun Sad, sad, sad, sad Why must i be sad? The rows of dandelions growing all around me Why must i be sad? (sad, sad, sad) (sad, sad, sad) No one knows these things but me and him So i'm writing everything down in a spiral notebook In the hopes that one day Other people will feel as low as this Ask me now I understand the words that alice said I kick the rocks beneath me I squint at the sun Sad, sad, sad, sad Why must i be sad? The rows of dandelions growing all around me Why must i be sad? (sad, sad, sad) No more mister nice guy

I love the dead I've been thinking about it Now i understand what he said Ask me now I understand the words that alice said I kick the rocks beneath me I squint at the sun Sad, sad, sad, sad Why must i be sad? The rows of dandelions growing all around me Why must i be sad? (welcome to my nightmare / dead) Why must i be sad? (babies / raped and freezin' / you) Why must i be sad? (drive me nervous / elected /) Why must i be sad? (generation landslide / un) Why must i be sad? (der my wheels / muscle of love /) Why must i be sad? (school's out / only women bleed /) Why must i be sad? (billion dollar babies) Why must i be sad? (sad, sad, sad) (sad, sad, sad) (sad, sad, sad) (sad, sad)
