Lyrics
Gotta good life
A roof over my head
I gotta a good-paying, steady job
A good man in my bed
Yeah I got little to complain about
but that don't stop me
I'm fishing for sympathy
and soothing words to prop me
My head's in a tizzy
I'm all upset
about things that haven't even
happened yet
I'm a natural born pessimist
What can I do,
I've got the imaginary blues--
My self-serving bias
is pathologically reversed
I can't recognize a good thing
'cuz I'm convinced I'm cursed (in a way I am)
Life's little victories
I can't enjoy
What if it all ends tomorrow?
What if it's all a ploy?
My refusal to give up my sadness
is the first step on the road to madness
Worrying's the only thing
I know how to do
I've got the imaginary blues-
My problems are figments
of an under-worked mind
I make mountains out of molehills
Just because I've got the time
Don't have enough catastrophes
that are real and true
I've got the imaginary blues--
The clinically depressive, low-self-esteem-based,
negative-self-talk -inflicted im-a-gi-nar-y-----blues--
