Song lyrics
[spoken]
Wonderful, isn't it wonderful now

I close my eyes when I get too sad
I think thoughts that I know are bad
Close my eyes and I count to ten
Hope it's over when I open them

I want the things that I had before
Like a Star Wars poster on my bedroom door
I wish I could count to ten
And make everything be wonderful again

I hope my mom and I hope my dad
Will figure out why they get so mad
I hear them scream, I hear them fight
They say bad words that makes me want to cry

Close my eyes when I go to bed and I
Dream of angels who make me smile
I feel better when I hear them say that
Everything will be wonderful some day

Promises mean everything
When you're little and the world is so big
I just don't understand how
You can smile with all those tears in your eyes
When you tell me everything is wonderful now

Na na nana........
Please don't tell me everthing is wonderful now

I go to school and I run and play
I tell the kids that it's all ok
I have to laugh so my friends wont know
When the bell rings I just don't want to go home

Go to my room and I close my eyes
I make believe that I have a new life
I don't believe you when you say that
Everything will be wonderful some day

Promises mean everything
When you're little and the world is so big (so big)
I just don't understand how
You can smile with all those tears in your eyes
When you tell me everything is wonderful now

Na na nana........
No. No. I don't want to hear you tell me everything is wonderful now.
No. No. I don't want to hear you tell me everything is wonderful now.
I don't want to hear you say that I will understand some day
No. No. No. No.
I don't want to hear you say that you both have grown in a different way
No. No. No.
No I don't want to meet your friend
I don't want to start over again
I just want my life to be the same
Just like it used to be
Somedays, I hate everything
I hate everything
Everyone and everything

Please don't tell me everything is wonderful now.
Na na nana....

No. Please I don't want to hear you tell me everything is wonderful now...

No. Please don't tell me everything is wonderful now..
Na nana..
Everything is wonderful now...

I (s)think that the best part is when it raises to a
"I just want my life to be the same just like it used to be"

Then it appears in my eyes like an excruciated person who looks up

Everytime I think I have been able to stop crying since my parents divorce I hear this song and I start up again. I can totally feel this kid's pain. I know what it's like to go to school and never want to go back home and I know what it feels like to laugh with your friends, when on the inside you are crying and screaming and your whole world is falling apart and all you want is your parents together again and it won't happen because they "fell out of love" or they "don't see each other as man and wife anymore". It kills. Divorce hurts a lot, not just the parents, but the kid(s). You can see the pain in your parents eyes. I know what it's like when a parent brings home another person and they tell you "he/she could never replace your real mother/father". I am never going to let my kids feel that pain. Everything will be wonderful.
