If It Makes You Happy

ive been long a long way from here

put on a poncho and played for mosquitoes

and drank til I was thirsty again

we went searching through thrift store jungles

found Geronimos rifle Marilyns shampoo

and Benny Goodmans corset and pen

well okay i made this up

i promise you id never give up

if it makes you happy

it cant be that bad

if it makes you happy

then why the hell are you so sad?

get down real low down

you listen to Coltrane derail your own trains

well who hasnt been there before?

i come round around the hard way

bring you comics in bed

scrape the mold off the bread

and serve you french toast again

okay i still get stoned

im not the kind of girl youd take home

weve been far far away from here

put on a poncho and played for mosquitoes

and everywhere in between

well okay we get along

so what if right now everythings wrong?
