Ani Difranco - Happy All the Time Lyrics



Ani Difranco - Happy All the Time Lyrics




Suffer did the Buddha
And suffer did the Christ
And suffer did Isis
When mankind started to write
And through profound suffering
Shines enlightenment's light
So I'm grateful for their struggle
Yes I honor their plight

But me I'm just happy all the time
Yeah me I'm just happy all the time

And I know pain is a teacher
To be welcomed and not feared
Alas pain is your ally
So embrace it while it's here
It's here to open up your eyes
Here to make the way clear
At least that's what I've observed
At least that's what I hear

But me I'm just happy all the time
Yes me I'm just happy all the time

I know trial brings wisdom
And greatness has a price
Just ask Abraham Lincoln
Ask miles davis' wives
And I have great admiration
For those that raise up mankind
But I'm afraid that great gift
Is not meant to be mine

Cuz me I'm just happy all the time
Yeah me I'm just happy all the time
