Lyrics Wilco – Happiness

My mother says I’m great
And it always makes me sad
I don’t think she’s being nice
I really think she believes that

So sad it’s nothing
Happiness depends on who you blame
I gather things can change
So maybe she’s asleep in her grave
She gave her body to science
So I’m not sure what’s in her place
Maybe roses or Tanqueray, whoa

So sad it’s nothing
Happiness depends on who you blame

I know the dead still listen
She sings a part of every refrain
Under the weight of the living
Pointing a finger
With no eyes to aim, whoa

So sad it’s nothing
It’s absolutely nothing
So sad it’s nothing
It’s absolutely nothing
So sad it’s nothing
Happiness depends on who you blame
