Ben Folds – Frowne Song (Feeble Anthem)

Why do we frown?
Is it something within us?
Or in the world at large?
Maybe it's both, y'all

The sadness deep inside
Is something we can't hide
We yearn for the past but
It's not there

And it makes me frown
Yeah, it makes me frown

You look at the news
Always giving me the blues
War, death and chaos
All around me now

The media's controlled
And will do just what they're told
Just want to stand up
And yell "is there anybody out there"

'Cause it makes me frown
Yeah, it makes me frown

It's hard to find hope
But maybe we can learn to cope
By listening to one another
It's a trust thing

'Cause I know that you have fear
'Cause you know the end is near
But just lend an ear
And we can make it happen

'Cause it makes me frown
Makes everybody frown

Oh, I know it can get hard
When you look out your back yard
See the O-Zone falling apart before you

Recycling's a bitch
I got just one wish:
That our children won't grow up in a freakin' trash can

A piano's all I got
And I know that ain't a lot
But music has the power
To change the future

So what do you think?
The message of hope
Better get with the program
Before it's too late, y'all

So if you want to start right now
Better take that fuckin' frown
Better turn it upside down
Just give in to love

Yeah, give in to love
Give it up for love
Amen to love
It's gotta be love

Or it'll make you frown
Oh, it makes us frown
Oh, it makes me frown
'Cause it makes me frown
