song of the day; Happie Is A Yuppie Word by Switchfoot
Category: Music
Views: 164

Ah!

Everyone dies
Everyone loves a fight
Nothing is sound
Nothing is right side right
Evening comes, when the sun goes down in red
Nothing is cool
When will all the fighting end
When will all the fighting end

Happy is a yuppie word
Nothing in the world could fail me now
It's empty as an argument
I'm running down a life that won't cash out (cash out)

Everything fails
Everything runs it's course
A time and a place, for all of this loving war
Everyone buys, everyone's gotta price, and nothing is new
When will all the failures rise
When will all the failures rise, rise!

Happy is a yuppie word
Nothing in the world could fail me now
It's empty as an argument
I'm running down a life that won't cash out

Happy is a yuppie word
Blessed is the man who's lost it all
Happy is a yuppie word (word)

Looking for an orphanage
I'm looking for a bridge I can't burn down
I don't believe the emptiness
I'm looking for the kingdom coming down
Everything is meaningless
I want more than simple cash can buy
Happy is a yuppie word
Happy is a yuppie word
Happy is a yuppie word
Happy is a yuppie,

Nothing is sound
Nothing is sound
Nothing is sound
Nothing is sound
Nothing is sound
Nothing is sound
Nothing is sound

Happy is a yuppie word
Nothing in the world could fail me now
Happy is a yuppie word (word)

So calm down, yeah!
So calm down, yeah!
So calm down, yeah!




for me, this is a really good laid-back kinda song that's good to end the day on. i've actually listened to this song as one of my last songs before i go to sleep for the past few nights. i haven't fully deciphered the meaning of this song, but it kinda seems pretty out there. the first part seems to be about how the human race just can't stop fighting with each other, having wars, and killing. the second part seems to be about failing and how most things these days can just be bought. and then the final verse seems to about someone who is finally going in the right direction; he doesn't care about all the worldly things anymore or about money or anything of that such anymore. he is one of the few people who are just looking for God. like i said, this is all my opinion, but i dont really listen much to this song for the lyrics, just to kinda relax me to end the day right. though i do love the bridge where Foreman just says "Nothin is sound!" over and over...thats pretty cool
