A life without happiness Some people means dying And when my train derails off its tracks I'd rather be there than be flyin' But it's just one of those things that tragedy brings That somehow makes me smile CHORUS: Well it's rainin' in the hall The sky's about to fall Everything's all wrong but I'm still smiling My best friend's out of work My boyfriend's such a jerk It makes me want to cry but I'm still smiling When it's all over everything I think you need a remedy Looks like you're walking on a wire Well someone's pain is another's comedy Someone else's water feels like fire We're all kids just having fun So stop me if you've heard this one CHORUS I see smiling everywhere In the faces of the old man I hear laughter in the children And it's our world of swirling contradictions Maybe we won't get them all But it's raining in the hall The sky's about to fall Everything's all wrong but I'm still smiling My best friend's out of work My boyfriend's still a jerk Makes me want to cry but I'm still smiling It's cloudy in my head I can't get out of bed The radio is dead but I'm receiving Messages in code But danger overloads And my sister's far away but I'm surviving When it all over everything I've run out of words to say I'm still smiling
