Richard Rodgers
Glad to Be Unhappy
Look at yourself
If you had a sense of humor, you'd laugh to beat the band
Look at yourself
Do you still believe the rumor that romance is simply grand?

Since you took right on the chin
You have lost that bright toothpaste grin
My mental state is all a-jumble
I sit around and sadly mumble

Fools rush in, so here I am
Very glad to be unhappy
I can't win, but here I am
More than glad to be unhappy

Unrequited love's a bore
And I've got it pretty bad
But for someone you adore
It's a pleasure to be sad

Like a straying baby lamb
With no mommy and no pappy
I'm so unhappy
But oh so glad

Unrequited love's a bore
And I've got it pretty bad
But for someone you adore
It's a pleasure to be sad
Like a straying baby lamb
With no mommy and no pappy
And so unhappy
But so glad
