What Will Happen Will Happen
Lemon Demon Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

So what if I'm down? Stuck in reverse.
I look around, it could be worse.
What can I do?
Honestly, I've got nothing to offer at all.
Why should I grieve?
Why should I fall?
I'd rather breath, cover my ears, open my eyes and see what appears.
What will happen will happen whether I'm happy or sad.
What will happen will happen whether I'm happy or sad.
There are days to wake up for. There are dreams to be had.
What will happen will happen whether I'm happy or sad.
There's a reason I'm freezing at eighty degrees in a summery season:
I'm totally mad.

So, I'll let it go.
No need to sink now that I know that I can think,
Therefore I am able to choose when I give a damn.
I refuse to be dumb,
This is my niche.
I won't become misery's bitch if I can hold apathy under total control.

What will happen will happen whether I'm happy or sad.
What will happen will happen whether I'm happy or sad.
There are days to wake up for. There are dreams to be had.
What will happen will happen whether I'm happy or sad.
And there's a reason I'm freezing at eighty degrees in a summery season:
I'm totally mad.

Not a hip hopped, not a heart stopped.
Everybody's gone stone cold crazy, like a cherry tree chopped.
Maybe Martin Scorsese's new movie just flopped, or
Maybe some baby in a groovy helicopter.

We do, we do nothing but hold the window shut to keep the worry out.
We never wanna see the daylight fade.
We gotta masquerade to keep the worry out.

But they have ways of making me think.
I can't blink, can't drink,
Can't put up a stink about the rattling battling and the countdown paddling.
The motherland straddling the weaky freak link.

We do, we do nothing but hold the window shut to keep the worry out.
We never wanna see the daylight fade.
We gotta masquerade to keep the worry out.

Imagine a world without the Unabombers, and the Jeffrey Dahmers.
Wouldn't we be calmer?
Now, of course by "we" I'm only speaking for me,
But it's easy to assume that other people agree, you see.

We do, we do nothing but hold the window shut to keep the worry out.
We never wanna see the daylight fade.
We gotta masquerade to keep the worry out.

If I, at my own convenience, forget what they say,
I find it easy to focus on living each day.
If I could change it I would, to do what someone else should,
But I believe that the problem is misunderstood.

What will happen will happen whether I'm happy or sad.
What will happen will happen whether I'm happy or sad.
There are days to wake up for. There are dreams to be had.
What will happen will happen whether I'm happy or sad.
What will happen will happen whether I'm happy or sad.
What will happen will happen whether I'm happy or sad.
There are days to wake up for. There are dreams to be had.




What will happen will happen whether I'm happy or sad.
What will happen will happen whether I'm happy or sad.

Overall Meaning

The song "What Will Happen Will Happen" by Lemon Demon talks about the realization that there are some things in life that are out of our control. It encourages the listener to focus on what they can control, to not let themselves be consumed by the negativity of the world, and to find joy in the moments that they have. The lyrics speak to the idea that sometimes when things are not going our way, it's best to accept the current circumstances and move forward, rather than dwelling on the negative feelings.


The chorus repeats the idea that what will happen will happen, regardless of whether we are happy or sad. It highlights the fact that life can be unpredictable, and it's important to make the most of the good moments and not let the bad ones define our entire outlook on life. The song encourages listeners to be proactive, to think for themselves, and to take charge of their emotions and their lives.


One interesting element of the song is the use of imagery to convey the sense of madness that the singer feels. The line "There's a reason I'm freezing at eighty degrees in a summery season" paints a vivid picture of someone who is so consumed by their thoughts and worries that they are unable to experience the world around them in a meaningful way. The song also incorporates references to pop culture, such as Martin Scorsese's films and the Unabomber, adding a touch of humor to the otherwise introspective lyrics.

So according to the album commentary, one of the reasons why this song was made is that Neil's friends were sad, about the elections or something. That's so nice! When a friend of mine is sad I never know how to react, I can barely say anything, let alone make a song.
