I've been long, a long 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, okay, 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 around, around the hard way, whoa Bring you comics in bed, scrape the mold off the bread And serve you french toast again Well, okay, I still get stoned, oh I'm not the kind of girl you'd take home [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? [Repeat Chorus] Ohh... Oh [Repeat Chorus x2] [Chorus] If it makes you happy, Ooh whoa It can't be that bad If it makes you happy, Then why the hell are you so sad? Then why the hell are you so sad...
