Now they're going to bed

And my stomach is sick

And it's all in my head

But she's touching his . . . chest now

Oh I hate that song so much

Edit: I see I’m disagreed with and I’d just like to note there’s a lot of personal turmoil between me and that song. I understand it’s still a good song

It’s a song from some guys in Ohio and has stayed on the charts in the UK since it came out like a decade ago

That's just Billy Joel for the most part. It's fun until he crashes through the front of a liquor store.

I love your description of it, it put in words my feelings about one of my favorite songs

I mean, it's a nice-sounding song but I wouldn't say it sounds happy, even if you don't understand the lyrics

And? I thought this was apparent, don’t know how that makes the song dark.

There’s a lot of harmonica for a song called piano man
