I didn't think I'd have to write this yet But have you seen the morning news I’m the happiest man in my hometown Ruled by racist country and the blues I’m really no better than anyone else ‘round here But I’d planned to start out with my best foot forward for you I’m flattered you’d look up to me But surprise, I have no idea what to do Everybody, let’s get down With the happiest man in town How can he not be a little bit proud With a voice so clear and loud A straight-edge catalyst for fun Never drank til 21 Clearly he knows what to do So give us your point of view This mornin’s meal was had at 2PM I only got up to take my dog outside My mind is full of things I’m putting off ‘Til I decide I’m worth their time But please don’t worry that I’m not doing too well When the big rush starts, and I’m on stage When the crowd looks, and my voice matters I’ll come alive and act my age Everybody, let’s get down With the happiest man in town How can he not be a little bit proud With a voice so clear and loud A straight-edge catalyst for fun Never drank til 21 Clearly he knows what to do So give us your point of view Yeah, so, I got interviewed, uh, as the happiest man in town in my hometown And they said, “Get advice from the happiest man in town,” So how about that? I’ll give you a little advice Here’s what I think Hold on, hold on, hold on See, we live in a town that doesn’t really like music At least, music that’s too loud, or makes you kinda scared So you know what? I have a good idea I’m in charge of this town, now, being the happiest man So here’s what I say we do Let’s burn it down How about that? I’m a voice of small town rage If you’re in charge, I’m gonna rattle your cage And send you boys a message from the man who’s now in charge So you’re all afraid of a little noise Of loud, angry girls and boys A precious notion of a peaceful town with meth problems and plenty of guns We’ll never see the sun In a city that doesn’t believe in fun Who thinks that happiness and health is a prize to be won Surprise, the kid you gave keys Will drive right through your ancient knees Into your city with our favorite song turned up all the way Let’s burn this town of apathy With just our voice and energy Brought by boredom and misery You’ll have to bury me Let’s burn this town of apathy With just our voice and energy Brought by boredom and misery You’ll have to bury me (Hello there) Let’s burn this town of apathy With just our voice and energy Brought by boredom and misery You’ll have to bury me Hello there, I’m new to pain But I’m over that, I’m back again Hello there, I’m new to purpose Thanks to that, I don’t feel worthless Hello there, I’m over you and Thanks to you, I’m feeling human Hello there, I’m new to sorrow But now my tears are dry And I’ll be back tomorrow
