Crappy
Reaction 7 Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wish I had a nice song to sing today
But they shut off my water and my woman ran away
They got the car last Saturday night
And there's no food so I'm on a diet
If that's what you want another cliché
I'm telling you true the dog died today

I'm feeling crappy really crappy

While the rest of the world is happy
Really crappy really sad
Wondering what else can go bad

Well I got a headache that won't go away
And I can't find a job no matter what I say
I guess I'll have to move out next Monday at noon
Haven't seen my parents much I'm gonna see them soon

I'm feeling crappy really crappy
While the rest of the world is happy
Really crappy really sad

Wondering what else can go bad

Haven't had a meal now for nearly a week
I opened up my wallet and I went to take a peek
But all that is in there is a lonely dollar bill
It's not quite enough to eat my fill

I'm feeling crappy really crappy
While the rest of the world is happy
Really crappy really sad
Wondering what else can go bad

Feeling crappy
Feeling crappy

Feeling crappy
Feeling crappy

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Crappy" by Reaction 7 describe a time in someone's life when everything seems to be going wrong. The singer is feeling low because of a series of unfortunate events – his water has been shut off, his woman has left him, his car has been taken, he has no food to eat, he has a headache that won't go away, he can't find a job, and he's about to move out of his home. The singer even mentions that his dog has died, which can be a particularly painful experience.

Despite all of these difficulties, the singer tries to keep his spirits up by acknowledging his own feelings – he's "feeling crappy" and "really sad." At the same time, he is aware that everyone else seems to be happy, which only makes him more aware of his own misery. Throughout the song, it's clear that the singer is struggling to see the light at the end of the tunnel, wondering what else can go wrong.

However, there is one silver lining in the song – the singer mentions that he's planning to see his parents soon. This suggests that he has a support system in place, and that there may be hope for him yet. Overall, the lyrics to "Crappy" are a poignant reflection of the experience of feeling down on your luck, and they capture the emotional heart of what it's like to go through a difficult time.

Line by Line Meaning

I wish I had a nice song to sing today
I am feeling down today and wish I had something positive in my life

But they shut off my water and my woman ran away
I have lost my basic necessities and my partner has left me

They got the car last Saturday night
I have lost my mode of transportation

And there's no food so I'm on a diet
I don't have enough money to buy food, so I am forced to go without

If that's what you want another cliché
I know that talking about my problems can sound like a cliche, but this is my reality

I'm telling you true the dog died today
As if things couldn't get any worse, my beloved dog has died

Well I got a headache that won't go away
In addition to my physical and emotional stress, I also have a persistent headache

And I can't find a job no matter what I say
I am struggling to secure employment despite my efforts

I guess I'll have to move out next Monday at noon
I am facing eviction and will have to find a new place to live

Haven't seen my parents much I'm gonna see them soon
I miss my family and will be visiting them for comfort soon

Haven't had a meal now for nearly a week
I am struggling to provide myself with basic sustenance

I opened up my wallet and I went to take a peek
I am constantly worried about my financial situation

But all that is in there is a lonely dollar bill
I only have one dollar to my name

It's not quite enough to eat my fill
I cannot buy enough food with just one dollar

Feeling crappy
To summarize: I am feeling terrible and overwhelmed

Dreams and The Chain are kind of boring to me as well as a real fan of the whole band. Watch Rhiannon live 1976 and if you don't like Fleetwood Mac after that, well to each their own. If you want to see the guitarist at work watch Big Love 1997 live. Lindey Buckingham is a master.
