Happiness #2

from In Jest by Poison Fish

/

lyrics

They call me Mr happiness
Born without a sadness gland
Make your lips and kiss the bride
She said yes the way I asked why

Happiness is just a drug
A god in a Faithless love
Smell roses as you get older
They'll drink themselves to sleep

And I swear that I'm not happy
When they swear that I'm not unhappy
I'll sleep in my own bed tonight
Because that's what grown-ups do

A glass of wine and a magic trick
With milk soaked in my skin
Happiness glistens from my pores
And it only hurts to smile

The call me master
Happiness as long as I still live
Boxes stuck onto the shelf
They won't display themselves

Take laugh to make another
I find meaning nothing
They can call me Mr. happiness
For price that I can't sell

Feelin like stillborn
Trapped inside a body
Feeling like the insides
Of a ventriloquist dummy

Feeling out of place
Can I hug up to mummy
They call me Mr Happiness
they find it kinda funny

...and I swear that I'm not happy
when they swear that I'm not unhappy
