Upbeat Songs With Depressing Lyrics:

"Mmmbop"

The Lyrics:

You have your many relationships in this life
Only one or two will last
You're going through all the pain and strife
Then you turn your back and they're gone so fast

So hold on to the ones who really care
In the end they'll be the only ones there
When you get old and start losing your hair
Can you tell me who will still care?

Why:

Hanson's breakout hit was an uptempo, very danceable song with a catchy chorus. However, if you listen closely to the lyrics, you discover that the song's really an ode to fleeting relationships/friendships, which is kind of a downer.
