This may be...
...the happiest rock n' roll ever written. And it's written by a guy who has reason to write anything but the happiest rock n' roll. Click on play. Lyrics are below, since you probably won't be able to understand what he's singing.I backed my car into a cop car the other day
Well he just drove off sometimes life's ok
I ran my mouth off a bit too much oh what did I say
Well you just laughed it off it was all ok
And we'll all float on ok
And we'll all float on ok
And we'll all float on ok
And we'll all float on any way well
Well, a fake Jamaican took every last dime with that scam
It was worth it just to learn from sleight-of-hand
Bad news comes don't you worry even when it lands
Good news will work its way to all them plans
We both got fired on the exactly the same day
Well we'll float on good news is on the way
And we'll all float on ok
And we'll all float on ok
And we'll all float on ok
And we'll all float on alright
Already we'll all float on
Now don't you worry we'll all float on
Alright already we'll all float on
Alright don't worry we'll all float on
And we'll all float on alright
Already we'll all float on
Aliright don't worry even if things end up a bit to heavy
We'll all float on alright
Already we'll all float on
Alright already we'll all float on
Ok don't worry we'll all float on
Even if things get heavy we'll all float on
Alright already we'll all float on
Don't you worry we'll all float on
All float on

A really good beat. But why does he not have a reason to be happy? And exactly who is he?
While I played it tonight, Dad's foot was tapping across the room. Pretty catchy tune!
SLB
It's by a band called "Modest Mouse" (named after a Virginia Woolf novel in which the main characters are described as "modest, almost mouse-like."), and the guy who wrote it has had a tough go: mom left father for father's brother, had to move in w/ mom and live in a trailer with no food or electricity, dropped out of school and had his two best friends die suddenly in the same year, etc, etc, etc. Anyway, it's just a great song, and yes, great beat.
