There just ain't no reason for the way that I feel
The way that I feel, but I'm feelin' good
Lately things just ain't been goin' quite like they should
Oh, not like they should, but I still feel good
Let me explain that I witnessed the end of the world
Oh, like someone had hurled all the weight on me
I couldn't see from my funeral walk just what I needed
Oh, just what I needed, but I couldn't see
I spent the last few weeks with a chip on my shoulder
I thought that I was alone with my tragedy, I couldn't take it
But if I see myself like an actor in a play
It makes me feel better, I'm not the only one
Who doesn't get his way
There just ain't no reason for the way that I feel
Oh, the way that I feel, but I'm feelin' good
I spent the last few weeks with a chip on my shoulder
I thought that I was alone with my tragedy, oh I couldn't take it
But if I see myself like an actor in a play
It makes me feel better, I'm not the only one
Who doesn't get his way
