Happy At Last Lyrics - Singles - Josh Joplin Group

I sound like Michael Stipe 

And I dream like Carl Jung 

And I look just like a show girl 

Who sleeps with her makeup on 

And I'm ready for the foot lights 

To play the part I'm cast 

I may not be a star 

But I'm happy at last 

Dance like Billy Budd 

And I pray like Dinah Shore 

I disappear like Garbo 

But I come back wanting more 

And I don't know where I'm going 

I'm running out of cash 

I may not be well off 

But I'm happy at last 

You know, I may not be well off 

But I'm happy at last 

I'm not as smart 

As a Sunday Times crossword puzzle 

Big words get me into trouble 

I never see the little light shine down 

I burn too fast 

I may be pale but I'm happy at last 

I'm happy at last 

I have a friend back home 

Who likes to sleep all day 

He packs his pipe, reflects on life 

And dreams his debt away 

He still lives with his parents 

Just like he always has 

He may not always know it 

But he's happy at last 

You know, he may not always know it 

He's happy at last 

Happy at last 

Happy at last 

Happy at last 

Happy at last
