Now is Not the Time for Sad Songs

I'll admit I am not in that great of a mood
Lately the state I'm in could be greatly improved
But I don't want to bring you down
So I'm not going to sing the blues
I'm not going to stare at my navel
Or my shoes

Nothing quite like the nightmare that we're living in
Every day, every night you feel like giving in
But I don't want to be a downer and
You don't want to hear me whine
I'll save that for another place
And another time

Now is not the time for sad songs
No, it's not the time for sad songs
Now is not the time for sad songs
Feeling bad songs

I will not drag you down the emotional drain
I won't share my malaise, my misfortune and pain
I don't want to be depressed and
You don't want to see me weep
I'll save that for later on
When I'm trying to sleep

Now is not the time for sad songs
No, it's not the time for sad songs
Now is not the time for sad songs
Feeling bad songs

Now is not the time for sad songs
No, it's not the time for sad songs
Now is not the time for sad songs
Hard times we had songs

I'm not a tortured artist
No really, I'm just fine
I just want to smile a while
And drink a little wine

Now is not the time for sad songs
No, it's not the time for sad songs
Now is not the time for sad songs
Feeling bad songs

Now is not the time for sad songs
No, it's not the time for sad songs
Now is not the time for sad songs
Hard times we had songs

Now is not the time for sad, sad songs
