Why am I so angry?
Why am I so mad?
Is it my new girlfriend?
Maybe mom and dad
How did I get so pissed off?
So many people have it worse
Is it something in my past life?
Some kind of new age voodoo curse?
[Chorus]
And I'd love to be happy
I forget how it feels
Driving towards somewhere
Instead of spinning my wheels
Spinning my wheels
Spinning my wheels
Where did I get all this tension?
I'm shaking like a leaf
If it's not one thing, it's another
That is my belief
Lost, freaked out and sorry
You know I'm miserable too
My violets are blood red
And my roses are blue
[Chorus]
Spinning my wheels
They go 'round, and around, and
Around, and around, and around, and
Around, and around, and around, and
Around, and around, and around, and
Around, and around
And I'd love to be happy
I'd love to find glad
But something inside me
Just wants to stay mad
And I need to start smiling
I forget how that feels
Driving toward somewhere
Instead of spinning my wheels
Spinning my wheels
Spinning my wheels
Spinning my wheels
Spinning my... spinning my wheels
Spinning my... spinning my wheels
Spinning my... spinning my wheels
Spinning my... spinning my wheels
Why am I so mad?
Is it my new girlfriend?
Maybe mom and dad
How did I get so pissed off?
So many people have it worse
Is it something in my past life?
Some kind of new age voodoo curse?
[Chorus]
And I'd love to be happy
I forget how it feels
Driving towards somewhere
Instead of spinning my wheels
Spinning my wheels
Spinning my wheels
Where did I get all this tension?
I'm shaking like a leaf
If it's not one thing, it's another
That is my belief
Lost, freaked out and sorry
You know I'm miserable too
My violets are blood red
And my roses are blue
[Chorus]
Spinning my wheels
They go 'round, and around, and
Around, and around, and around, and
Around, and around, and around, and
Around, and around, and around, and
Around, and around
And I'd love to be happy
I'd love to find glad
But something inside me
Just wants to stay mad
And I need to start smiling
I forget how that feels
Driving toward somewhere
Instead of spinning my wheels
Spinning my wheels
Spinning my wheels
Spinning my wheels
Spinning my... spinning my wheels
Spinning my... spinning my wheels
Spinning my... spinning my wheels
Spinning my... spinning my wheels

"My violets are blood red,
And my roses are blue."
I think this song conveys something we've all felt before. When nothing in life ever changes and it feels like the good things are passing you by. You start to get depressed, despite having nothing to really complain about.
