I've been long,a long way from here
put on a poncho and played for mosquitoes
and drank til I was thirsty again
we went searching through thrift store jungles
found Geronimos rifle,Marilyns shampoo
and Benny Goodmans corset and pen
well,okay,i made this up
i promise you I'd never give up
if it makes you happy
it cant be that bad
if it makes you happy
then why the hell are you so sad?
get down,real low down
you listen to Coltrane,derail your own trains
well,who hasn't been there before?
i come round,around the hard way
bring you comics in bed
scrape the mold off the bread
and serve you french toast again
okay,i still get stoned
I'm not the kind of girl youd take home
if it makes you happy
it cant be that bad
if it makes you happy
then why the hell are you so sad?
if it makes you happy
it cant be that bad
if it makes you happy
then why the hell are you so sad?
we've been far,far away from here
put on a poncho and played for mosquitoes
and everywhere in between
well,okay,we get along
so what if right now,everything's wrong?
if it makes you happy
it cant be that bad
if it makes you happy
then why the hell are you so sad?
if it makes you happy
it cant be that bad
if it makes you happy
then why the hell are you so sad?
