If It Makes You Happy

Lyrics

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 okay, 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?
 ♪
 We get down, areal low down
 You listen to Coltrane, derail your own train
 Well, who hasn't been there before?
 I come proud, around the hard way
 Bring you comics in bed, scrape the mold off the bread
 And serve you French toast again
 Well okay, 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 mosquitoes
 And everywhere in between
 Well okay, 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?
