Happy Times

Check what´s on T.V.
Hand me another beer
It tastes so pleasing
I´m just so happy here
Are you aware, yes you must realize
These are such happy times

My reflection looks back at me from the gleam in my shoes
Trendy died hair hangs down in my eyes
These are such happy times
and there is always something to do

We´ve had some fun, babe
But I´ve run out of cash
Can´t you stop scratching?
We can´t afford no stash
Remember the lows help you notice the highs
These are such happy times
Watch as the paint on the wall peels and falls to the floor
Everyone knows that a man doesn´t cry
These are such happy times
Why then are your bags sitting by the door?

Go on and go, just leave all of this
It´s a diamond in the rough
A friendly abode in a gay neighborhood
I´ll never get enough
Of sleeping alone with my back to the wall
It´s nice to feel safe
Just look at the sky, the sun´s shining down
You can see it through the haze

Here in the city
Everyone loves this town
I´m not being witty
The guys really get around
When we´re on the prowl out painting the town
These are such happy times
Loneliness is just a state of mind that isn´t real
Riding in the back of a rented Cadillac
There are such happy times
If everything went wrong it´d be no big deal
These are such happy times
We´re having such happy times
