"Happy To Be Here" lyrics - TODD SNIDER

All of my neighbors are all up in arms
About something they saw on TV
Seems some politician got busted for somethin'
That won't make any difference to me
Now I'm sure it's all true and I'm tired of this too
But I can't pray for someone to fall
I let all them people do what people do
I'm just happy to be here at all

I'm happy to be here to vote randomly
On who ought to take the next dive
I'm eager to see what the downfall will be
And all the hilarity on Saturday Night Live
You know, mostly it's all scandal TV these days
That's where the real money must fall
Down from the smog of some Hollywood haze
I'm just happy to be here at all

[Chorus:]
I'm happy to be here
I'm happy to be
Happy

Just happy to be here to see how it goes
If everything blows into space
I've been walking my tennis shoes right through my toes
Trying to keep up with the rest of the race
Mostly I stare out my window these days
Watching my dog chase her ball
I'll do my job here, whatever it pays
I'm just happy to be here at all
