Song lyrics
Ah! 

Everyone dies 
Everyone loves a fight 
Nothing is sound 
Nothing is right side right 
Evening comes, when the sun goes down in red 
Nothing is cool 
When will all the fighting end 
When will all the fighting end 

Happy is a yuppie word 
Nothing in the world could fail me now 
It's empty as an argument 
I'm running down a life that won't cash out (cash out) 

Everything fails 
Everything runs it's course 
A time and a place, for all of this loving war 
Everyone buys, everyone's gotta price, and nothing is new 
When will all the failures rise 
When will all the failures rise, rise! 

Happy is a yuppie word 
Nothing in the world could fail me now 
It's empty as an argument 
I'm running down a life that won't cash out 

Happy is a yuppie word 
Blessed is the man who's lost it all 
Happy is a yuppie word (word) 

Looking for an orphanage 
I'm looking for a bridge I can't burn down 
I don't believe the emptiness 
I'm looking for the kingdom coming down 
Everything is meaningless 
I want more than simple cash can buy 
Happy is a yuppie word 
Happy is a yuppie word 
Happy is a yuppie word 
Happy is a yuppie, 

Nothing is sound 
Nothing is sound 
Nothing is sound 
Nothing is sound 
Nothing is sound 
Nothing is sound 
Nothing is sound 

Happy is a yuppie word 
Nothing in the world could fail me now 
Happy is a yuppy word (word) 

So calm down, yeah! 
So calm down, yeah! 
So calm down, yeah!

And then they start singing and playing and I turn it off.

wow this is the next single huh? thought lonley nation or easier than love would be but i guess i was wrong. this song does rock still. i wasn't too excited about this song but after hearing this live, it's one of my favorites especially the "nothing is sound!" part. that always gets me going haha

The line is actually a reference to an interview Bob Dylan did some years back.
