EVERLASTING HAPPYLAND (ELHL)

 

Look at me now - I’m jumping all over town

And everyone is glad to see

That everything is going better now

And everybody is happy with me

If one day - Things become different

The question seems to be

What is going on in everlasting happy land

What is going on with me

 

Yes, I am feeling all right now - And everyone can see, that

I am feeling all right, how - on earth could I be really me

 

If I were you - I would stay - For a little while

If you were me - Would you run away - In style?

Everlasting Happy Land…

 

People talk. - It's what they like to do.

The truth is very cheap

Deep down below - The story is cheating well

The conclusion runs very deep

After a while - Things get very serious

Nobody seems to care

Destroying a life is not as important - As the value of being there

 

Yes, I am feeling all right now - And everyone can see, that

I am feeling all right, how - on earth could I be really me

 

It is so hard - To feel, to accept

What life is meant to be

A beautiful time - A wonderful world

Until death eventually

Everlasting Happyland - We will forget the pain

Of our desires - And abandoned dreams

We will find ourselves in chains

If I were you - I would stay - For a little while

If you were me - Would you run away - In style?

Everlasting Happy Land

Overcasting sleight of hand

Flabbergasting circumstances

Yes, I am feeling all right now - And everyone can see, that

I am feeling all right, how - on earth could I be really me
