If It Makes You Happy

I've been long, 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

Refrão
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

Refrão 2X

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?
