I've been long along way from here
Put on a poncho played for mosquitos
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 ok I made this up
I promised you I'd never give up
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 ok I still get stoned
I'm not the kind of girl
you'd take home
If it makes you happy
It can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad
If it makes you happy
It can't 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 played for mosquitos
And everywhere in between
Well ok we get along
So what if right now
everything's wrong
If it makes you happy
It can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad
If it makes you happy
It can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad
