Troubles

Welcome to the troubles
they've been hanging around
grafted on body doubles
sneaking up to your door
without a sound

they're not the kind
that you expected
been so long
undetected
they said there'd be
a minimal effect
but these kind of views
are no longer respected

That's the troubles
yeah, that's the troubles
all got troubles
and they're not going away

I've been around
seen the sights
I been down
I've had
my share of fights

but I've never seen trouble like this, no
I've never seen it so bad
trouble here, trouble there
trouble gonna make you,
make you so mad

And that's the troubles
yeah, that's the troubles
all got troubles
and they're not going away

They got troubles in Paris
they got troubles in Rome
everywhere, nothing but trouble
trouble getting so close
so close to home

oh dance to the beat
of a different drummer
if it's not one thing
then it's another

And that's the troubles
yeah, that's the troubles
all got troubles
and they're not going away

What ever happened to happy?
what ever happened to glad?
all that I see around me
everybody getting so mad...
