Lyrics
[Verse 1] Lots of things I could have done Little tokens of my love That I was always saving up to spend It's the thought that counts, I guess Even one that don't make sense Even when it's easy to forget [Pre-Chorus 1] Too much time for the self employed I heard you scream in your mother's voice So afraid you'd become her in the end You want a life that you cannot live Well, that's what keeps you competitive Throw another shower for a friend [Chorus] You can tell me where it is Cause I'm lookin' for that happiness Come on, tell me where it is For the sake now of the argument Come on, tell me where it is Cause I'm looking for that happiness Come on, tell me where it is Cause I'm lookin' [Verse 2] Not yet a mother but a good complex You like the boys when they're scared of sex What a shame that they grow up to be men Well, maybe father does know best And that's the reason why he left All your pride, to the last ditch you defend [Pre-Chorus 2] It took a while to accept our fate And all the chance it eliminates Once we did, there was nothing to pretend Always say there's a time and place So maybe odds will consolidate If they do, I will greet you as a friend [Chorus] You can show me where it is Cause I'm lookin' for your happiness Come on, show me where it is Now you found it all by accident Come on, show me where it is Cause I'm lookin' for your happiness Come on, tell me where it is Cause I'm lookin'
