Cover art for Rotten World Blues lyrics by Eels

I think this song is about accepting life on its own terms. when you try to manipulate the world to your liking, you get disappointed. when you resign yourself to the fact that so many things are outside of your control, then things start working in your favor, like magic. point of the song (I think)- make plans, but know they can change. everything will be OK.
