If It Makes You Happy

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 searchin', through thrift store jungles Found Geronimo's rifle, Marilyn's shampoo And Benny Goodman's corset and pen Okay, I made this up I promised I will 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? Well, okay, I still get stoned I'm not the kind of girl you'd take home But 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? Why the hell are you so sad? Why the hell are you so sad? Oh We've been far, far away from here Put on a poncho, played for mosquitoes And everywhere in between If it makes you happy
