If It Makes You Happy - Live

I've been long
A long way from here
I put on a poncho, played for mosquitoes
And drank 'til I was thirsty again

We went searching
Through thrift store jungles
Found Geronimo's rifle, Marilyn's shampoo
Benny Goodman's corset and pen

But alright, 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
Who hasn't been there before?

I come around
Around the hard way
Bring you comics in bed, scrape the mold off the bread
And serve you French toast again

Well alright, I still get stoned
I'm not the kinda 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?

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 mosquitoes
Everywhere in between

Alright, 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?

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