Happier

Quick kid quips, so harsh and cynical

Touches stricken, cold and clinical

Such a transformation to behold

But I don't like this new, I want the old



It's not the words that make it final

You've said such things before to rival them

But it's how you say 'em now that's changed

Cold but sympathetic all the same



You'd like too convince me that I'll be better off



Oh, you go on and I'll be happier, I'll be happier

You go on, yeah, you go on

You'll be gone and I'll be happier



Shoot me with your rubber bullets

Your finger's on the trigger, pull it

I know you want this suffering to end

So it is forgivable my friend



It's all to convince me that I'll be better off



So you go on and I'll be happier,

You go on and I'll be happier

You go on, yeah, you go on

You'll be gone and I'll be happier



Bo-bo-ba-do-bo

Bo-bo-ba-do-bo-da-da-da



Say what you mean, what you mean

Is you'll be happier without me, without me, without me, oh



You won't convince me, that I'll be better off

So you go on and I'll be happier, I'll be happier

You go on, you go

You'll be gone, and I'll be gone

You go on and I'll be happier, you go on and I'll be happier

You go on, you go on, you go on and I'll go on and I'll be happier

You on and I'll be happier, you go on and I'll be happier



You go on, and I'll be happier
