Lyrics and translation
Original
It's a mad, mad world, tell me not to be so mad about it.
It's a sad, sad world, tell me that I ought to laugh about it.
Funny thing is I'm the one with the cool head. Everything's fine if you pretend.
Bless this mess, hallelujah, but I'm about to lose it.
Two, three, four. Don't tell me to calm down.
Tell me to calm down. It's freaking me out that you're not freaking out. Don't tell me
I'll be fine. Even if you're right.
It's freaking me out, don't tell me to calm down.
It's a mad, mad world, trying not to lose my shit about it.
Calm down. In a bad, bad mood, maybe I should take a hit about it. Calm down.
Any other day, I'd need a hug like a teddy bear.
Now the room's on fire, need to get some air. Oh, bless this mess, hallelujah. Thoughts and prayers, so what, who cares?
Don't tell me to calm down. Tell me to calm down.
It's freaking me out that you're not freaking out.
Don't tell me I'll be fine. Even if you're right.
It's freaking me out, don't tell me to calm down.
Oh. Oh.
Don't tell me, don't tell me to calm down.
Oh. Oh.
Don't tell me, no, don't tell me to calm down.
Drifting through this fever dream. In microplastic submarines.
Your body is not yours, it seems. What the fuck is happening?
Don't tell me to calm down. Tell me to calm down.
It's freaking me out that you're not freaking out.
Don't tell me I'll be fine. Even if you're right.
It's freaking me out, don't tell me to calm down. Oh. Oh.
Don't tell me, don't tell me to calm down.
Oh. Oh.
Don't tell me, no, don't tell me to calm down.
