Put on a poncho, played for mosquitos,
![](/images/songs/translate_icon.png)
And drank til I was thirsty again
![](/images/songs/translate_icon.png)
We went searching through thrift store jungles
![](/images/songs/translate_icon.png)
Found Geronimo´s rifle, Marilyn´s shampoo
![](/images/songs/translate_icon.png)
And Benny Goodman´s corset and pen

Well, o.k. I made this up

I promised you I´d never give up
![](/images/songs/translate_icon.png)
If it makes you happy
![](/images/songs/translate_icon.png)
It can´t be that bad
![](/images/songs/translate_icon.png)
If it makes you happy
![](/images/songs/translate_icon.png)
Then why the hell are you so sad

You get down, real low down
