Lyrics
That's the problem, dear, with angry people They try to go it alone Digging in and making cranky, feeble pleas That other angries disown Angry people think a good solution Is getting others involved So they surround themselves with happy people And watch their smiles dissolve
We just drag them down We just drag them down We just drag them down Until they're just like us
Angry people get so sanctimonious Telling us what to do Hoping no one outs them all as phonies Just 'cause we are all phonies too Those of us who once had wives and families Understand what I mean What was once a calm and peaceful refuge Is overtaken by spleen
'Cause we just drag them down We just drag them down We just drag them down Until they're just like us
I am the singer in the band We're only trying to lend a hand And though it's not what we had planned We understand
We just drag you down We just drag you down We just drag you down Until you're just like us
In a square a thousand angry people Are waving signs in the air While a million other happy people Are trying hard not to care You see, the happy people's biggest problem is Never fearing the worst While the rest of us will never sleep until Your happy bubbles are burst
Now, we just drag them down Tonight just drag you down Just watch me drag you down Until you're just like us
