The Dolf Album / Track 9 / Happy Day

"Happy Day" is track 9 from The Dolf Album. A little dark humor, some social commentary, a bit of existential musing, a whole lot of God, and a delicious hamburger... "Happy Day" was inspired by the spate of deadly shootings that occurred at McDonald's restaurants in the 90's. Can you imagine dying at a McDonald's???

This song contains one of my favorite lines from The Dolf Album, "My body goes limp and my tray falls down / My burger and my blood are all over the ground. Hey. Hey. "

I deserve a break
So I think I’m going out for lunch today

Hey, hey, what a happy day…

A burger and fries and a hot apple pie
Cashier smiles at me there’s a gleam in her eye

Hey. Hey, what a happy day…

I turn around and to my dismay
Machine gun bullets all over the place

Hey, hey, what a happy day…

My body goes limp and my tray falls down
My burger and my blood are all over the ground

Hey, hey, what a happy day…

Oh you pulled a good one, are you laughing at me?
While you plan more jokes on humanity

Hey, hey, what a happy day…

Oh I feel forsaken for the way I was taken
But I guess you always knew, knew I was fakin’

Hey, hey, what a happy day…
