Everybody knows   That happy is the new sad   So I am gonna go   And imitate my old dad   And never crack a smile again      Everybody knows   That as we all get older   The will is first to go   And so upon my shoulder   The bluebird shall not sing again      Everybody knows   That as our hair gets grayer   We strike a bended pose   And say a little prayer   To never feel this way again      Everybody knows   It's never getting better   Everything must go   And you will have to let her   And never see her face again      Everybody's youth   Is only what they make it   We're longer in the tooth   So why do people fake it?   We'll never get it back again      I know it hurts   No one wants to die   Goodbye, goodbye   Goodbye, goodbye
