Текст песни So Damn Happy - Loudon Wainwright III

The sad thing is I'm so damn happy.
Who'd blame her if she were to slap me?
The sun should not shine when there's rain,
I should be in a lot more pain,
At least I should feel slightly crappy,
But the sad thing is I'm so damn happy.

And the worst thing is it's so much better.
And that admission would upset her.
But it's true and it's beyond belief,
What I feel is sheer relief,
I may regret the day I met her,
And the worst thing is it's so much better.

It's comic that it's all so tragic.
It's that humdrum novel 'Old Black Magic'.
Let's have a laugh after we cry,
Let's hope we live before we die,
The silly clowns, red noses running,
And it's tragic that it's all so funny.

It's crucial that it doesn't matter.
Vows of love are idle chatter.
To feel this good has to be bad,
I'm so damn happy that it's sad!
Dear listener, would you like to slap me?
And the sad thing is I'm so damn happy.
Yes the sad thing is I'm so damn happy.
