about

sometimes ya just gotta be sad

lyrics

I blame it on the planets
when I'm feeling too bad
to even try to understand it
when I'm feeling sad, I
blame it on the planets,
I blame it on the stars.
Rather than blame myself I'd rather
blame it on Mars.

I am not feeling my best
and I've got no good reasoning
to why I'm feeling this way.
My emotions are going,
they're going crazy.

I feel like a balloon
perilously close to a safety pin;
I feel like a total fool,
but just before I start my spiraling
I decide to

blame it on the planets
when I'm feeling too bad
to even try to understand it
when I'm feeling sad, I
blame it on the planets,
I blame it on the stars.
Rather than blame my tired heart
blame it on Mars.

Oh, Mercury retrograde
why are you doing this to me?
Better stay away from stairs...

Oh, Jupiter retrograde
why are you doing this to me
and my day dreaming stare?

Oh, Saturn retrograde why are you doing this
to me, keeping me away from all my structure plans?

Oh, Venus retrograde...
why are you doing this
to me? Making me feel like
no one understands....

I blame it on the planets
when I'm feeling too bad
to even try to understand it
when I'm feeling sad, I
blame it on the planets,
I blame it on the stars.
Rather than blame myself

Rather than blame myself

Rather than blame myself
I'll blame it on Mars.

I'll blame it on Mars,
I'll blame it on the stars,
I'll blame it on the planets.
