O ne O Y P er' s View on IsraeI<br />

Mieah Libln and D. Brownian<br />

Let me tell you about my problem<br />

I can't sing the blues cause I<br />

don’t got 'em<br />

I started to write<br />

Had nothing to say<br />

Because everything<br />

Seems to go my way<br />

I always win, man I never lose<br />

And that’s why I've got the<br />

Happiness Blues.<br />

I woke up one day and nothing<br />

was right<br />

The toothpaste tube was empty<br />

and I was losing a fight<br />

Couldn’t take it any longer<br />

I started to scream<br />

But I just woke up laughing<br />

It was all a bad dream<br />

I always win, man I never lose<br />

And that’s why I've got the<br />

Happiness Blues<br />

If you don't like smiles then stay<br />

away<br />

Because I'm gonna brighten up<br />

your whole day<br />

I never lose<br />

I always win<br />

And I am going to<br />

Rub it in<br />

I always win, man I never lose<br />

And that’s why I’ve got the<br />

Happiness Blues<br />

They say ,Why are you 80 lucky.<br />

what do I lack?'<br />

G-d owes me a favor and Insists<br />

on paying me back<br />

To cite an example this is my<br />

worst day<br />

People knelt as I was walking and<br />

they started to pray<br />

They got right down and they<br />

kissed my shoes<br />

And that's why I've got the<br />

Happiness Blues<br />

I'm a happiness junky, a good<br />

times freak<br />

I don’t need sustenance, I don't<br />

have to eat<br />

I don't need food<br />

Bread or butter or beans<br />

My staple is euphoria<br />

Tou know what I mean<br />

I always win, man I never lose<br />

And that’s why I've got the<br />

Happiness Blues<br />

That’s why I’ve got the Happiness<br />

Blues<br />

Oh Yeah!<br />

If you’ve got troubles bring ’em<br />

near<br />

If you've got problems I'd like to<br />

hear<br />

If you've got sorrow bring it on<br />

Because I wanted to write a sad<br />

sad song<br />

I started to write but I had to<br />

stop<br />

I guess I got a blues mental block<br />

I fell in love with a beautiful girl<br />

She was the prettiest thing in the<br />

whole wide world<br />

I asked her out, she said no<br />

She said, ,There’s just one place<br />

that I have to go*<br />

She said, ,I never go anywhere<br />

without my twin"<br />

What did I tell you, I always win
