"serena joy" lyrics
"serena joy"
Yeah, it's all for the cause
For the good of us all
And if you close your eyes
Then it can't be your fault
Yeah, it's all for the cause
For the good of us all
Here's a tower we built
Painted gold on the walls
And we'll never be beat
No, we never will fall
While they're out on the streets
Man, we're having a ball
Come in close, come in close
Come a little bit closer
Sing along, sing along
What they tell you to do
Comin' 'round, comin' 'round
Comin' around the corner
If they do it to them
They'll do it to you
If they do it to them
They're gonna do it to you
Have a Coke and a smile
In the hot summer bliss
Now go bother your neighbors
While we do what we wish
Have a Coke and a smile
Let me show you a trick
If you can't throw a punch
You can learn how to spit
And we'll never give up
And we'll never submit
Look, the life of your dreams
Is beyond that cliff
Come in close, come in close
Come a little bit closer
Sing along, sing along
What they tell you to do
Comin' 'round, comin' 'round
Comin' around the corner
If they do it to them
They'll do it to you
If they do it to them
They're gonna do it to you
That's what you
That's what you
What you get, what you get
It's automatic
Go ahead, go ahead
Don't think about it
What you get, what you get, what you get
Rotting in the sunshine
What you get, what you get
It's automatic
Go ahead, go ahead
Don't think about it
What you get, what you get, what you get
Everything is just fine
Everything is just fine
Everything is just fine
"Serena Joy" was released to support Rodrigo's Daisy Chain Fields charity festival. Only 500 CDs with the song were distributed at Analog Record Shop in Orange County, California, starting from the 21st of August, 2026. The track was relesed digitally three days later of which Rodrigo shared on Instagram, "Surprise!!! Serena Joy out on streaming platforms now. A portion of all net proceeds go to Daisy Chain Fields fund. I love this song so much!!!!"
The title of this song refers to character Serena Joy in "The Handmaid's Tale" (1985), a fiction novel by Margaret Atwood.
The song was meant to be included on Olivia Rodrigo's third studio album, "You Seem Pretty Sad For A Girl So In Love", but didn't make the cut. She said about the reason in an interview with Etalk, "The record was very much a chronicle of a relationship—beginning, middle and end. But I hope that it'll be a part of something else down the line."
