What’s It Take to Be Happy?

Woke up in a Cadillac

And the candy blue paint nearly gave me a heart attack

No, I never signed up to be rich and famous

But if it goes my way I'll make it quick and painless

That's what the aim is

I got sick at your momma's house

And I know she's upset, couldn't hear what she's on about

No, I never signed up to be Mr. Shameless

And up until this point I kept the record stainless

Oh what's it take to be happy?

'Cause I'll just quit and do that

Yeah, what's it take to be happy?

'Cause I know I won't come back

And I don't get Billie

Yeah, I tried so hard but the voice sounds silly

So I decided that I don't give a fuck about hype

I'm just old, and she's not my type

Guess that's alright

And I'm feeling damn good in my denim

Happy hour, I'm buzzing, I'm a weapon

Been a long few years we've been stressing

And all I think about is how

I can't wait to get out this place

Make a move, make a dollar, leave a trace

I know a girl down in Arizona State that can make it all worth the wait

Oh what's it take to be happy?

'Cause I'll just quit and do that

Yeah, what's it take to be happy?

'Cause I know I won't come back

You're takin' it too personal, just laugh and let it be

Quit trying to hold the world atop your shoulders, let them breathe

It's what I see

Oh, what's it take to be happy?

'Cause I'll just quit and do that

Yeah, what's it take to be happy?

'Cause I know I won't come back

Woke up in a Cadillac

So I went back to bed, and there ain't nothin' wrong with that
