and they are more interesting than singing about cemetaries and dying and incontinence and pain and fear.

I actually only know two songs on this topic. One is sung by a frog and you are quoting it. The other one also talks about blue birds.

I know they're wrong, wait and see.

Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection.
