This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
When a frown is the best you can do
When you're down, when you're down
When you're down in a bad place
You with the sad face
When you're stuck, when you're stuck
When you're falling apart
In a rut, in a rut
Yet you're stuck with excuses
Oh baby, I'm useless
Boys will be boys
Girls will be girls
It's a mixed up, muddled up, mixed up world
Are you taking the mick?
'Cause ain't life a bitch sometimes?
You've gotta keep smiling
Through the thunder and lightning
You've gotta keep trying
Don't cry before you're hurt
You've gotta keep smiling
Through the thunder and lightning
You've gotta keep trying
Because things can, things can get much worse
Take a break, take a day to relax
Get away, get away
Get away to the sunshine
Throw me a lifeline
When life is hard,
When life is just unfair
Well have a laugh
Have a laugh at the rat race
We'll make a new place
Boys will be boys
Girls will be girls
It's a mixed up, muddled up, mixed up world
Are you taking the mick?
'Cause ain't life a bitch sometimes?
You've gotta keep smiling
Through the thunder and lightning
You've gotta keep trying
Don't cry before you're hurt
You've gotta keep smiling
Through the thunder and lightning
You've gotta keep trying
Because things can, things can get much worse
Things can get much worse
Things can get much worse
When you're down, when you're down
When you're down in a bad place
You with the sad face
When you're stuck, when you're stuck
When you're falling apart
In a rut, in a rut
Yet you're stuck with excuses
Oh baby, I'm useless
Boys will be boys
Girls will be girls
It's a mixed up, muddled up, mixed up world
Are you taking the mick?
'Cause ain't life a bitch sometimes?
You've gotta keep smiling
Through the thunder and lightning
You've gotta keep trying
Don't cry before you're hurt
You've gotta keep smiling
Through the thunder and lightning
You've gotta keep trying
Because things can, things can get much worse
Take a break, take a day to relax
Get away, get away
Get away to the sunshine
Throw me a lifeline
When life is hard,
When life is just unfair
Well have a laugh
Have a laugh at the rat race
We'll make a new place
Boys will be boys
Girls will be girls
It's a mixed up, muddled up, mixed up world
Are you taking the mick?
'Cause ain't life a bitch sometimes?
You've gotta keep smiling
Through the thunder and lightning
You've gotta keep trying
Don't cry before you're hurt
You've gotta keep smiling
Through the thunder and lightning
You've gotta keep trying
Because things can, things can get much worse
Things can get much worse
Things can get much worse

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
