Bob Ricci – Depressing Rock Song Lyrics

I grew up in a little suburbia
I graduated at the top of my class
My parents loved me, my friends they all envied
The kind of life that they all knew that I had
I got accepted to an Ivy League college
My Mom and Dad paid every step of the way
I'm graduated now in financial freedom
I'm getting thousands of job offers a day

But Uncle Cliffy said to follow my passion
He told me I should always do what I like
I've always dreamed of someday being a rock star
So I went out and did my hair in a spike
I got a tattoo and a couple of piercings
I threw out all my Abercrombie and Fitch
But when I started on my rock and roll lyrics
I realized there might be one tiny hitch

Cause I ain't had no dire trauma
And I ain't got no burning pain
Ain't got no reason to be angry
Ain't got no reason to complain, yeah

I'm trying to write a depressing rock song
But everything in my life is OK
I ain't got no depressing story
I've never really even had a bad day

My girlfriend told me she'd be into a threesome
I won the lottery the first time I played
I saved a family from a burning apartment
I'm being honered in a local parade
I've just been chozen as the new Dalai Lama
I won the nobel prize for just being me
I wish so bad that something awful would happen
So I can finally feel some kind of grief

Cause I ain't got no brooding anger
And I can't bring myself to hate
I'm so happy and elated
Everything is just so great, yeah

I'm trying to write a depressing rock song
But everything in my life is OK
How will I ever make the top 40?
If I don't scream and yell and fuss and complain?

I'm trying to write a depressing rock song
But everything in my life is OK
I'm trying to sing about how tough that I've had it, but
The silver spoon, it always gets in my way

I'm trying to write a depressing rock song
But everything in my life is OK
I ain't got no depressing story
But I won't let this killer riff go to waste

(I'm trying to write a depressing rock song)
I'm so happy
(I'm trying to write a depressing rock song)
I'm so happy
(I'm trying to write a depressing rock song)
I'm so happy
(I'm trying to write a depressing rock song)
I'm so happy
(I'm trying to write a depressing rock song)
I'm so happy
