Intro :
I 've been long a long way from here
Put on a poncho played for mosquitos
And drank til I was thirsty ag ain
We went searching through thrift store jungles
Found Geronimo's rifle Marilyn's shampoo
And Benny Goodman's corset an d pen
Well o .k. I made this up
I promise d you I'd never gi ve up
If it makes you hap py
It can't be that b ad
If it makes you hap py
are you so sad
You get dow n real low down
You listen to Coltrane derail your own train
Well who hasn't been the re before?
I come round around the hard way
Bring you comics in bed scrape the mold off the bread
And serve you french toast ag ain
Well o .k. I made this up
I promise d you I'd never gi ve up
If it makes you ha ppy
It can't be that b ad
If it makes you hap py
Then why the hell are you s o sad
W e've been far far away from here
Put on a poncho played for mosquitos
And everywhere in be tween
Well o. k. we get along
So what if right now everyth ing's wrong?
If it makes you hap py
It can't be that b ad
If it makes you hap py
are you so sad
