This is one of my favorite songs of all time! It's telling people to get over the fact that life sucks. It is just such a powerful song, it's even more powerful coming from The Dead Milkmen because most their music is more laid back and comedic. I also think that The Dead Milkmen are referencing most their songs in the line "i'll be your stupid happy clown", and don't get me wrong those silly songs are great and meaningful too, but in this song I think they just wanted to show people how serious they can be. And it's awesome!
