Happy to Be Here
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
All of my neighbors are all up in arms
About something they saw on TV
Seems some politician got busted for something
That won't make any difference to me
Now I'm sure it's all true and I'm tired of this too
But I can't pray for some guy to fall
I say let all the people do what people do
I'm just happy to be here at all
Happy to be here to vote randomly
On who ought to take the next dive
Eager to see what the downfall will be
And all the hilarity on Saturday Night Live
Mostly it's all scandal TV these days
That's where the real money must fall
Down from the smog of some Hollywood haze
I'm just happy to be here at all
I'm happy to be here
Happy to be
Happy
Happy to be here to see how it goes
When everything blows into space
I've been walking my tennis shoes right through my toes
Trying to keep up with the rest of the race
Mostly I stare out my window these days
Watching my dog chase her ball
I'll do my job here whatever it pays
I'm just happy to be here at all
Just happy to be here at all
