Ween - Happy Colored Marbles Lyrics
Most people are not ok, but they're taking their siestas in the sun
Got some ideas on the way it should be
But most of 'em just carrying on
Happy colored marbles that are rolling in my head
Carry that velvet sack full of pretty colored marbles
And I'll ask you for 'em back, when I'm ready and done
Most people are not ok, and they're slackin' cause the job ain't done
Fillin' up on the poison nut
And getting down till the dawn
Happy colored marbles that are rolling in my head
I put 'em back in the jacket of the one I love
Carry that velvet sack full of pretty colored marbles

Ween Happy Colored Marbles Comments
I was talking to a friend about the band Tally Hall and they recommended me this band. This song in particular reminds me a lot of Tally Hall.
Aaron was writing about antidepressants cause he was depressed from the divorce he was going through
I played the xylophone on this track.
Ween just gets better and better with every listen.
Also, the album picture is horrifying with the creepy guy staring at the other dude.
It's from an old board game
@And I That makes sense, Ween really likes weird pictures. XD
When I first heard this: AHHHHHHH! Second time hearing it: Scary-ish. Third time: HAPPY COLORED MARBLES!!!
Good shit
This is the very first song I ever heard. Right after I was born my sister and aunt sang this to me and it has been one of my favorite songs since I could remember
Memories of my first time eating shrooms.
Man, I Love this Song! HAIL BOOGNISH!!!
sublime
Power behind Understanding and Weakness of misunderstanding,,, just be Kind and Understanding and Nobody will be Out... ;) <3
I like to put colored marbles in my girlfriends balloonknot
Song sounds like acid
I'm gonna learn how to play this for my school's talent show.
Hell yeah do it!!!!
33 people are not ok
This song is a dph trip
When I first heard this song I was very intrigued at the start and when the crazy blasts in at the 2 min mark I laughed so hard that I was crying... By the end of the song I wasnt laughing anymore, I was just crying. Thanks Ween 10/10
First time listening to this song after push the little dasies. Sounds like a room full of cluster A personality disordered substance abusers.
I think this song shows all parts of human nature. We present everything as too refined but then as all our emotions swirl around we can try to surpress it but it just ends up cascading into chaos even when wed like to escape even for a second.
Sounds like if filmcow made a song
It's a new experience with the speed at 1.5.
Holy shit, thank you
When the happy colored marbles are adderall
Fillin' up on the poison nut
woah when I was listening to this, the tornado sirens went off at around the 2:30 mark and it sounded rad
25 DOWNVOTERS ARE NOT OK!
my favourite song on the album
I don't do drugs but I imagine this is what having a bad trip on LSD or something would feel like. It starts out almost overly happy and cheerful, then some strange undertones come into play , and then it instantly transforms into a phycadellic mess that scares the unwary listener .
I love this song
If you have issues & are still enchanted with the world, yes.
Kinda like a high dose of salvia. You get really giggly at first then shit gets fucked up
As someone who has done plenty of acid since college (my roommate was my connection), you're right on the money. Coming up was always fun with a slight tinge of anxiousness, like climbing to the top of a rollercoaster. And the first hour or so was great. Music was fun, childlike, goofy. Crazy visuals and patterns made the room and light come alive. Conversation was strange. You'd get stuck on words that would keep popping up. Yours and other people's quirks were more pronounced. And then someone would say something that unintentionally rubbed you the wrong way, or a song in a minor key with weird lyrics came on, and it could spiral your mind into a dark place. I've never had a trip that was pure bliss, even though a lot of people say they have. Most of my trips on acid (except my first) had some ominous undertones. Never had a pure hellish bad trip though like some people, just that that feeling of something bad going to happen was pretty consistently present.
I did 30 hits of acid and it was more like white noise but 80x louder than this song
You are spot on my good sir!
Ok this song just reminds me of We Happy Few.
Broken Warhead Studios you yucky little bacon strip
If mental disorder was a song.
this song has grown on me so much over the last month..there's always a ween tune that you initially dismissed waiting to be re-discovered.

HAPPY COLORED MARBLES LYRICS
Most people are not ok, but they're taking their siestas in the sun
Got some ideas on the way it should be
But most of 'em just carrying on
Happy colored marbles that are rolling in my head
I put 'em back in the jacket of the one I love
Carry that velvet sack full of pretty colored marbles
And I'll ask you for 'em back, when I'm ready and done
Most people are not ok, and they're slackin' cause the job ain't done
Fillin' up on the poison nut
And getting down till the dawn
Happy colored marbles that are rolling in my head
I put 'em back in the jacket of the one I love
Carry that velvet sack full of pretty colored marbles
And I'll ask you for 'em back, when I'm ready and done
I always thought he was saying filthy sack
Beautiful. Haunting and true
This song and Zoloft both creep me out.
Understandable
Fuck that ending
Skinny b Jansen it's deliberately meant to shock you with contrast.
perfect song
This song manages to be both childish and frivolous as well as hardcore, creepy and disturbing. That's just the magic of Ween, I guess.
Katia Managan Exactly. That's what makes Ween's edginess/weirdness so great. They're not just doing it for the superficial purpose to be like "oh look how weird we are". No, it's genuinely who they and their music are. Some bands try similar sounds but just seem so fake and try hard.
HAIL BOOGNISH!!!!!
everytime i listen to this i legitimately get scared when it screams and starts the descent
NastyMcOutplay pussy
Oh no im at 1 min and read this comment
That part is like the drop on a log flume ride from hell.
The descent started at 0:00 my friend
I would sing this shit in the shower (alone) to the rest of the inmates
Haha that's hilarious, I bet they thought you were weird af. Love it.
Loves it.
You sir are but one of the few flecks of gold shimmering amongst the coal dust that is this world. hahahahahaha
This song is kind of creepy. Amazing, but creepy. I love it
Amazing BECAUSE it's creepy
TigerLily after 1:58 it is very creepy
i could animate this
Soon, my friend
I dare you
sounds like the ost of a 90s pc edutainment adventure game if it developed schizophrenia
That's a perfect description for this song.
holy shit nice profile pic
most people are not ok
But they're taking their siestas in the sun
This is what going insane sounds like...
it sounds like schizophrenia
If you're not insane you are insane
@Vre83 We live in a society
@DeliriousLoner Yes we fucking do
Did anybody fricking jump the first time they heard this when the song gets like hardcore?
I was high, and I couldn't turn it off quick enough
I'm pretty high but I like it.
It spooked me big time
No... pussy! :D ;)
I'm guessing that this song is about a guy who's going crazy. (The happy coloured marbles are his meds)
Judging from the heavy ending, I don't know if it's actually positive - but it's still a great song!
I can agree with you there :)
+Dark Star he said "most people fillin up on the poison nut which can mean either a drug, or prescription medication for a possible mentally ill patient. the drug can mean a really scary deep shit bad trip. and the mental patient can probably just go through what the patient is really thinking about when doctors force them to take pills in a hospital or asylum.
tnar no,this is about someone being high which is why this song is so trippy and the marbles are just what ur thinking about when your high f that makes sense
I was thinking the marbles were ecstasy
what other of weens songs are like this? well by other artists too
+RapathyK Listen to all of The Mollusk and get some Flaming Lips and Beck in your life, you must do this
Maybe Mr. Bungle
Try Cabin Man by Cows off Sorry in Pig Minor
Ween makes me smile. I remember exactly what i was doing and who i was with when i first heard this song. It was like a first kiss. Magic to my motherlovin ears. I have never been the same. Fuck I love this song <3
Going to see Ween for the second time this year!
Angel Sisti you spoke my mind...
I completely agree. my first ween song I heard was Roses are Free followed by What Deaner was Talking About... I'm in love
First time I heard it was at a Ween show my friend brought me to. It was amazing.
Fucking same. My friend sent it to me on MSN Messenger.
Very dynamic. These guys are great.
Who In Hell Would Thumbs Down This?!
Cause they're richard smokers.
Poopy pokers
28 people are not OK
A fucking moose
Def people...
Most People Are Not Okay....
i have a pair of happy colored marbles that can get the job done
I'm not okay, trust me
Absolute Ash I'm nooooooot oooookkkkkk
It's true.
I just realized this song and Zoloft are about antidepressants.
Not bad.
I'm sure the Beatles would have sounded like this if they were a generation younger.
This is actually kinda like some stuff on Magical Mystery Tour; I see what you're sayin'
I love Ween, but comparing them to The Beatles? No. Radiohead has been since ok computer was released. They will be considered the best band of this time period. Like The Beatles were. Pearl Jam will also be on the list.. I listen to Ween more often than Radiohead. I assume you are under 25, maybe in college.
Chris Johnson you think Radiohead will be placed up with the Beatles ? And you even have Pearl Jam up there? Your probably not wrong. I do enjoy Radiohead , creeps a great song! lol just kidding. Though I will always love that song their stuff after ok computer is hit or miss for me. Obviously Yorke is a top tier song writer though, no denying that
BEATLES ARE GLORIFIED POP BULLSHIT.
@JOE BLOW Ween and thousands of other bands were heavily inspired by The Beatles, so you can take your comment and shove it up your pretentious ass.
make this available on mobile devices fuckwit
This music kills all bad things, so it cured it.
glad to know some1 else knows about the marbles, im not alone :)
Insanity summed up in a song.
"Most people are not okay..."
Shut up
¦l '/ZæZ ¦/ ;/ :/ :l :J :) :o :b :O :D
@WolfStorms44 no prolem
@WolfStorms44 The songs Candi and Drifter in the Dark always make me think of Bioshock
I imagine this song this about two things.. Insanity, or Ecstasy. Either way, It's a beautiful song :)
Well, the first time I took a zoloft, I laid down and listened to this song really loudly and felt so strange....wonder if it was the zoloft or not?
oh my god i just found this song early in the mroning like 4 or 5. this song just saved me. i dont know i get the song . makes you go crazy if your high. 2:00 thats when you go insane
Best song about losing your shit.
@pigeoncesar Try Deicide !!!!!!!
2:00 scared the shit out of me..
