If It Makes You
Happy
I've been long, a long way from
here Put on a poncho, played for mosquitoes, And drank til i
was thirsty again We went searching through thrift store
jungles Found geronimo's rifle, marilyn's shampoo And benny
goodman's corset and pen
Well, o.k. i made this up I
promised you i'd never give up
Chorus: If it makes you happy It
can't be that bad If it makes you happy Then why the hell are
you so sad
You get down, real low down You
listen to coltrane, derail your own train 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
Well, o.k. i still get stoned I'm
not the kind of girl you'd take home
Chorus:
We've been far, far away from
here Put on a poncho, played for mosquitos And everywhere in
between Well, o.k. we get along So what if right now
everything's wrong?
Chorus: |
