Lyrics

Hi, they call me Miss Negative Nancy
I don't enjoy watching people as they pass me by
I could see a butterfly and not crack out a smile
Actually, come to think of it
I haven't smiled for a while
I force it on my face, try to wear it for days
To say that it is genuine would be a mistake
If I were to be honest it would be a hot take
I cannot switch it on just for anybody's sake
They tell me to look happy
Like I only need to look the part
They tell me to pretend
Like happiness is the means to an end
I wish that I could pretend
Just to be a better friend
I wish that I could fake a smile
Feeling better for a little while
I don't think I can
Enjoy the simple pleasures of being a man
Because there is a difference in what I can do
As a woman in this world, there is no room
It shouldn't make or break it
And I could still enjoy
The good things that I have in life
But I can't ignore this strife
Can't flip a switch and turn it off
I feel like that I've had enough
Of faking smiles and playing pretend
What's the means, and to what fucking end
I wish that I could pretend
Just to be a better friend
I wish that I could fake a smile
Feeling better for a little while
You know I've tried it all before
And it shook me to my core
You think that if I try hard enough
That a smile will put it to a stop
You want me to be as happy as can be
But I can't really see how I can smile
In this world full of tragedy, it's just a travesty
I guess I will always be a Negative Nancy
In this fantasy, I'm losing my sanity
I don't think I can be what you want from me
It's a tragedy, yeah it's a travesty
I guess I will always be a Negative Nancy
Maybe we should just play something happier
Yeah, like this
So fucking happy
So fucking happy
So fucking happy
So fucking happy
So fucking happy
So fucking happy
So fucking happy
