[Verse 1]
I've been a long
A long way from here
I put on a poncho, played for mosquitoes
Drank 'til I was thirsty again
I went searchin'
Through thrift store jungles
Found Geronimo's rifle, Marilyn's shampoo
And Benny Goodman's corset and pen

[Pre-Chorus]
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 sеrve you French toast again
[Pre-Chorus]
Well, okay, I still gеt stoned
I'm not the kind of girl you'd take home

[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?
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

[Pre-Chorus]
Well, okay, we get along
So what if right now everything'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?
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, oh-oh
