First a rant to the kid reviewer who said this song is "pretty positive":

I think you need to wait a few years then actually listen to the lyrics. The song is about suicide- you need to hear more than the "think happy thoughts" part.

This song is really amazing. I love how the upbeat, classic-rock-esque music contrasts with the lyrics. This song is about committing suicide, and the lyrics are dr. seus-like.

"Well let's go back to the middle of the day that starts it all,

and I can't begin to let you know just what I'm feeling.

And now the red ones make me fly,

And the blue ones help me fall,

And I think I'll blow my brains against the ceiling.

And as the fragments of my skull begin to fall,

Fall on your tongue like pixie dust

Just think Happy thoughts!

And we'll fly home..."

Listen for yourself. It's a great song.
