Are We Happy? Songtext

von The Leisure Society

She said it's a tough, tough world
The things that I've seen, will leave you shivering
I set myself in to her, we changed like the lights
On a busy street
Checking constantly

That we're happy
To be here

She said let your whiskers grow
Bearing the lines, broken promises
You made to yourself and her
How does it feel
Sitting silently
In this room with me

Are you happy
To be here?
Are you happy
To be here?

Details are everything
Cut from the chase
To splint our shins

We cast long shadows now
Crimes from the past
Let us down
Time and again

On the night the comet came
Stared at the sky
And lit another one
Meanwhile the industrious birds
Harvest the bones
Filling beaks they go
Flitting to and fro

Are they happy
To be here?
Are we happy
To be here?
