We're Happening Lyrics

I let it go,
Well didn't I say so?
Yeah you should know,
It's no thanks to you though.
When I come out
You don't really get it
It freaks you out
But only 'cause you let it

All the dormitory bunks split trust-fund punks
So the ragga-rich boys make poor boy's noise.
The living dead ain't down on luck
Don't pretend you don't give a fuck

'Cause we're happening
We're happening
We're happening

Yeah, come sit down,
No I don't wanna bore you.
We don't hang out,
Maybe we should do.
When I go out,
I keep my mouth shut.
I'm sweet all night,
Everyone is cool but

I studied here two years ago,
Do you know all the guys I know?
Miles high and inches deep
And that is quite an arty cliqué.

We are happening
We are happening
We are happening

Who are you, what do you do?
Oh yeah, I like doing nothing too.
Oh, all your friends like The Gang Of Four?
No none of mine have ever heard 'em before

But we are happening
We are happening
We are happening

We are happening
We are happening
We are happening

We are happening
We are happening
Was it happening?

'I studied here two years ago, Do you know all the guys I know?'

and he's poking fun at the arts students or cool crowd...

'all your friends like The Gang Of Four? No none of mine have ever heard 'em before'

I think the following lyric is a round-about way of saying these people are shallow...

'Miles high and inches deep And that is quite an arty cliqué.'

Yeah.
