This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
So what if I’m down? Stuck in reverse.
I look around, it could be worse.
What can I do?
Honestly, I’ve got nothing to offer at all.
Why should I grieve?
Why should I fall?
I’d rather breathe, cover my ears, open my eyes and see what appears.
What will happen will happen whether I’m happy or sad.
What will happen will happen whether I’m happy or sad.
There are days to wake up for. There are dreams to be had.
What will happen will happen whether I’m happy or sad.
There’s a reason I’m freezing at eighty degrees in a summery season:
I’m totally mad.
So, I’ll let it go.
No need to sink now that I know that I can think,
Therefore I am able to choose when I give a damn.
I refuse to be dumb,
This is my niche.
I won’t become misery’s bitch if I can hold apathy under total control.
What will happen will happen whether I’m happy or sad.
What will happen will happen whether I’m happy or sad.
There are days to wake up for. There are dreams to be had.
What will happen will happen whether I’m happy or sad.
And there’s a reason I’m freezing at eighty degrees in a summery season:
I’m totally mad.
Not a hip hopped, not a heart stopped.
Everybody’s gone stone cold crazy, like a cherry tree chopped.
Maybe Martin Scorsese’s new movie just flopped, or
Maybe some baby in a groovy helicopter.
We do, we do nothing but hold the window shut to keep the worry out.
We never wanna see the daylight fade.
We gotta masquerade to keep the worry out.
But they have ways of making me think.
I can’t blink, can’t drink,
Can’t put up a stink about the rattling battling and the countdown paddling.
The motherland straddling the weaky freak link.
We do, we do nothing but hold the window shut to keep the worry out.
We never wanna see the daylight fade.
We gotta masquerade to keep the worry out.
Imagine a world without the Unabombers, and the Jeffrey Dahmers.
Wouldn’t we be calmer?
Now, of course by “we” I’m only speaking for me,
But it’s easy to assume that other people agree, you see.
We do, we do nothing but hold the window shut to keep the worry out.
We never wanna see the daylight fade.
We gotta masquerade to keep the worry out.
If I, at my own convenience, forget what they say,
I find it easy to focus on living each day.
If I could change it I would, to do what someone else should,
But I believe that the problem is misunderstood.
What will happen will happen whether I’m happy or sad.
What will happen will happen whether I’m happy or sad.
There are days to wake up for. There are dreams to be had.
What will happen will happen whether I’m happy or sad.
What will happen will happen whether I’m happy or sad.
What will happen will happen whether I’m happy or sad.
There are days to wake up for. There are dreams to be had.
What will happen will happen whether I’m happy or sad.
What will happen will happen whether I’m happy or sad.

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
No Surprises
Radiohead
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

It sounds like it means murphy's law. because the repetitive lyrics "what will happen will happen" means the same as "Whatever Can Happen, Will happen." but explained on the commentary neil wrote this song as an upbeat rebuttal to some of his friends who were feeling miserable after the result of the 2004 US presidential election
