Bowling For Soup's, "99 Biker Friends"
The Lyrics:
it takes a tough man to slap her around such a bad guy to keep such good girl down you're such a tough guy can't wait to bring you down she's wearing shades that we all see behind the tinted glass and i've got 99 biker friends that wanna kick your ass
Why:
the song's about a man abusing his woman and how all these guys wanna kick his ass for it(99 friends of the lead singer to be exact), but it's got the same type of happiness as all their other songs
