It's Not My Fault, I'm Happy Lyrics

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

But there is no no no no
Easy way to tell them so, the things you know
And 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 being funny makes you feel like up and running
When your past lingers like rain clouds, casting 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
Once I had a love to show, a love they know
They're 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 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 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

What is the Meaning of It's Not My Fault, I'm Happy?

Exploring themes of internal conflict and societal expectations, this track delves into the complexities of personal happiness amidst external chaos. The narrator feels trapped in a cycle of despair, symbolized by being tied to a rocking chair, yet asserts their right to happiness despite the turmoil. The lyrics suggest a disconnect between the individual's perception and that of others, questioning fairness and justice in relationships and broader social contexts. The repeated refrain "It's not fair" underscores their frustration with perceived injustices, while "Don't call me crazy, I'm happy" highlights their struggle for self-acceptance. 🌧️ Ultimately, the song reflects on resilience and the pursuit of joy in a world that often misunderstands or dismisses one's inner battles. #InnerConflict #PersonalHappiness #Resilience
