Happiness Not Included

 

Happiness Not Included

(album: Happiness Not Included - 2022)


We can't sanitize our history
Just because it's not what we want it to be
England was built on sorrow and pain
Slavery and ill-gotten gain
We gotta look around and recognize
Who we are now, how far we've come
Recognize those who deserve it
And live with those who don't

So wash your hands and sing happy birthday
Hand gel won't sanitize your sins
So much we enjoy are built on broken backs
We can't turn away and paper over the cracks

Before you get deluded
Read the small print of life
Happiness not included
Happiness not included

No one's gonna save us, I've come to set us free
When they're piling up their bodies and they're pointing at me
And you told me last night that I didn't have to fear
That if that is the case, just what the fuck we're doing here
Staring at the dark, taking stock of our lives
Troopers stealing control, even sharpening our knives
Getting up and ready when it all comes down
Get ready to duck so hit the ground

Look around now
Look around now
Look around now
Look around now

Everything and it's seen as offensive
That's why we're always on the defensive
Our social media makes us slaves, like
Children we have to be told to behave
We only see in black and white
Retching up the drama for the thrill of the fight
And we kill, kill, kill in the rush of the game
Shooting all the soldiers again and again

Before you get deluded
Read the small print of life (look around now)
Happiness not included (look around now)
Happiness not included (look around now)

Times are moved in shifting sands
The future's in another lunatic's hands
It's turning on my TV again
They're watching all the people in pain
News is like crack cocaine
Everybody getting high again and again
I don't wanna know about the politician talks
I don't even know just how the magic works

Look around now
Look around now
Look around now
Look around now

So put your grief in a tweet with the crying emoji
And so many words with nothing to say
And don't look at me you Hollywood whores
When you're back there sweeping the restaurant floors

Before you get deluded
Read the small print of life
Happiness not included
Happiness not included
Before you get deluded
Read the small print of life
Happiness not included
Happiness not included

Look around

klaar
