Don't Worry Be Happy
Mr. Fish Lyrics

I married my high school drama queen
I wedded someone who always craves attention and delights in creating a scene.

She pulled the curtains over me
She started controlling me, my thoughts, my actions and my relationships.

Then it was I now pronounce you a one act fool
With this marriage, I have become a foolish one-act play in which she is the star.

I've been sitting here wishing for my pot of gold
I've been hoping for my lucky break or big win that will bring me success and wealth.

And my ship to come on in
I've been waiting for a miracle or a stroke of good luck that will change my life for the better.

But the mother load is just another load of $#*! that I've been sinking in
Luck never came and I’ve been stuck all this while in deep, deep trouble.

Say goodbye to greener pastures, living happy ever after
Any hopes of a better life and an idyllic future have been killed.

I don't wanna be happy
I'm not interested in finding happiness.

So what if I'm blue
I don't really care if I am feeling down or depressed.

I'm not looking for a change I'm keeping my old shoes
I'm not actively looking for a way out of this situation and will keep on relying on the old ways of life for sustenance.

That's why I'm with you
The only reason I'm sticking around is because you provide the comfort and emotional support that I need to cope.

Now it's Oprah and Sally and how the world turns
Now I'm just focusing on the endless loop of celebrity scandals, TV shows and world events that distract me from my own unhappiness.

And the big time money that I'll never earn
I'm living in envy of those who have the big bucks while I'm stuck here, struggling to make ends meet.

When only the sun goes down the party's over
Whenever the night falls, my happiness and contentment also fizzles away.

If misery loves company
If it's true that people who are unhappy like to be around others who are miserable...

Then, baby you and I were meant to be
...then you and I are the perfect match to suffer together.

Tomorrow's turning out to be a beautiful day, yeah
I don't care about tomorrow or the future; I'll just focus on the present and not look too far ahead.

Say goodbye to greener pastures, living happy ever after
I am fully aware of the fact that the future will not be happy and just need to accept reality as it is.

I don't wanna be happy
Once again, I don't care about finding happiness for myself.

So what if I'm blue
Feeling down doesn't bother me anymore.

I'm not looking for a change
I have accepted that change is unlikely and I will continue on as is.

I'm keeping my old shoes
I will embrace my old habits and ways, no matter how dysfunctional they might appear to others.

I don't wanna be happy
To repeat again, finding happiness is not one of my priorities.

That's why I'm with you
But staying with you is the easiest way for me to keep on going, as I don't need to make any changes or take any risks.
