If It Makes You Happy (Apple Music Sessions)

I been long, a long way from here

I put on a poncho, played for mosquitoes

Drank till I was thirsty again

I went searchin' through thrift store jungles

Found Geronimo's rifle, Marilyn's shampoo

Benny Goodman's corset and pen

Well, okay, 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 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 serve you French toast again

Well, okay, I still get stoned

I'm not the kind of girl you'd take home

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

We've been far, far away from here

We put on a poncho, played for mosquitoes

Everywhere in between

Well, okay, we get along

So what if right now every thing'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?

If it makes you happy

It can't be that bad

If it makes you happy

Then why the hell are you so sad?

Oh
