Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I been long, a long way from here

I put on a poncho, played for mosquitoes

Drank till I was thirsty again

I went searchin' through thrift store jungles

Found Geronimo's rifle, Marilyn's shampoo

Benny Goodman's corset and pen

[PreChorus]

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?

[Verse 2]

You get down, real low down

You listen to Coldplay, derail your own train

Who hasn't been there before?

I come 'round, around the hard way

I bring you comics in bed, scrape the mold off the bread

And serve you French toast again

[PreChorus]

Well, okay, I still get stoned

I'm not the kind of girl you'd take home

[Chorus]

It makes you happy

It can't be that bad

If it makes you happy

Then why the hell are you so sad?

[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

[Verse 3]

We've been far, far away from here

We put on a poncho, played for mosquitoes

Everywhere in between

[PreChorus]

Well, okay, we get along

So what if right now every thing's wrong?

[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?

[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?

[Outro]

Oh
