If It Makes You Happy Lyrics

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, o.k. I made this up
I promised you I'd 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?
I come round, around the hard way
Bring you comics in bed, scrape the mold off the bread
And serve you french toast again

Well, o.k. I still get stoned
I'm not the kind of girl you'd take home

If it makes you happy
It can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad

We've been far, far away from here
Put on a poncho, played for mosquitos
And everywhere in between
Well, o.k. we get along
So what if right now everything's wrong?

If it makes you happy
It can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad

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, o.k. I made this up  
I promised you I'd 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?  
I come round, around the hard way  
Bring you comics in bed, scrape the mold off the bread  
And serve you french toast again  
  
Well, o.k. I still get stoned  
I'm not the kind of girl you'd take home  
  
If it makes you happy  
It can't be that bad  
If it makes you happy  
Then why the hell are you so sad  
  
We've been far, far away from here  
Put on a poncho, played for mosquitos  
And everywhere in between  
Well, o.k. we get along  
So what if right now everything's wrong?  
  
If it makes you happy  
It can't be that bad  
If it makes you happy  
Then why the hell are you so sad
