Perhaps there is a time to complain, but, if so, by all means, let it be a short time or seldom time. At all times be thankful.

So you had a bad childhood, The world isn't fair;
You can't trust anyone anymore;
Don't complain, be thankful.
Other people are better off than I am;
Nobody ever gave me anything.
If it were not for you I would be happy;
Don't complain be thankkful.
The future looks so bleak; I can't continue like this;
Nobody will come to my funeral;

(Refrain)
Don't complain, Be thankful.
A good reason for you not to complain is:
You ain't seen nothing yet! Don't complain, Be thankful. Don't complain, Be thankful.

I could say I am the blame, But that's not true ;
We all know society is the blame; Don't complain,
Don't complain, be thankful.
How can I win against society, I can't;
There 's no use of me trying anymore;
A lot of other people are unhappy;
Don't complain, be thankful.
I'll wait now death is near,
I'll moan and groan today, Tomorrow will bring more sorrow or death.
