I Just Can't Be Happy Today

(앨범: Machine Gun Etiquette - 1979)

I just can't be happy today
I just can't be happy today

A lot of you know there's not a smile
There's no feeling fun without being fine
It's a price on your head
Nobody sighed when justice is read

I just can't be happy today
I just can't be happy today

They're closing the schools
They're burning the books
The church is in ruins
The priests hang on hooks
The radios on ice
The telly's been banned
The army's in power
The devil commands

Illegal to dance, forbidden to cry
You do what you're told, you never ask why
Ignore all those fools
They don't understand we make our own rules

I just can't be happy today
I just can't be happy today
I just can't be happy, just can't be happy, just can't be happy today
I just can't be happy, just can't be happy, just can't be happy today
