He Bought the Farm

Today started out bright and shiny Then suddenly turned cloudy and sad Doesn't take much to turn it around To change a good day to bad Something that seems so insignificant Can change the mood of the day Like rain that falls that wasn't predicted Or snow in the middle of May They call us guys moody people They wonder why we're up and down It's quite uncontrollable most of the time We'd much rather smile than frown So if you see me with a frown on my face Remember it's nothing you said It's just this up and down mood I get in Much rather be upbeat instead Lately I've been much more up than down Happy it's not the other way round Don't want to put an end to it any time soon Decided I'd still like to hang around Have no fear, love life way too much To do myself some bodily harm Would be totally contrary to who this guy is You'll never say, “he bought the farm!”
