He Tells Himself He’s Happy

Michael Franks

[Verse 1]
Look at him, he dials the number
Lucky Jim, he's so misunderstood
So he slams it down for good

[Chorus]
And he tells himself he's happy
He tells himself he's happy
He tells himself he's happy
He tells himself

[Verse 2]
Couldn't tape with Dr. Gizmo
She's got a pain for which there is no cure
She's a solo, that's for sure

[Chorus]
And she tells herself she's happy
She tells herself she's happy
She tells herself she's happy
She tells herself

[Post-Chorus]
So she tells herself she's happy
And so she tells herself
So she tells herself she's happy
And so she tells herself

[Bridge]
Look at me, right where you left me
How pitifully I face that empty bed
I'm just hanging by a thread

[Chorus]
And I tell myself I'm happy
I tell myself I'm happy
I tell myself I'm happy
I tell myself

[Post-Chorus]
So I tell myself I'm happy
And so I tell myself
So I tell myself I'm happy
And so I tell myself

[Outro]
So you tell yourself you're happy
And so you tell yourself
So you tell yourself you're happy
And so you tell yourself
So you tell yourself you're happy
So you tell yourself
So you tell yourself you're happy
So you tell yourself
So you tell yourself you're happy
So you tell yourself
