[Verse 1]
I knew the world was falling apart now right, now
I felt the wings fly over the top now, top now

[Bridge]
Hello hello would you see me now?
Would you be so old?
Hello hello would you see me now?
Would you be so old?

[Chorus]
Why so? Why so serious?
Why so? Why so serious?
Why so? Why so serious? Serious, yeah yeah yeah
Why so? (Yeah yeah) Why so serious?
Why so? (Yeah yeah) Why so serious?
Why so? Why so?

[Verse 2]
I felt a long long way
I grabbed a shovel then I dug my grave
And then I hit the bottom six feet down
I went all the way down, all the way down

[Chorus]
Why so? Why so serious?
Why so? Why so serious?
Why so? Why so serious? Serious, yeah yeah yeah
[Bridge]
Fell down, right back where I started, I lost it
Fell out, fell right out the damage, I lost it

[Chorus]
Why so? Why so serious?
Why so? Why so serious?
Why so? Why so serious? So serious, yeah yeah yeah
