Mi capita spesso di mettere in lista in WMP tutti gli mp3 del mio HD esterno, modalità random...e WMP riesce sempre a beccare i soliti brani  Stasera però ne ha tirato su uno che non sentivo da una vita: If it makes you happy, di Sheryl Crow..che ricorda ben 11 anni, tratto dall'omonimo album del 1996.
Non avevo mai prestato molta attenzione al testo, e devo dire che è bello...eccolo qui..

"If It Makes You Happy"

I've been long, a long way from here
Put on a poncho, played for mosquitos,
And drank til I was thirsty again
We went searching through thrift store jungles
Found Geronimo's rifle, Marilyn's shampoo
And Benny Goodman's corset and pen

Well, o.k. I made this up
I promised you I'd never give up

[Chorus]
If it makes you happy
It can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad

You get down, real low down
You listen to Coltrane, derail your own train
Well who hasn't been there before?
I come round, around the hard way
Bring you comics in bed, scrape the mold off the bread
And serve you french toast again

Well, o.k. I still get stoned
I'm not the kind of girl you'd take home

[Chorus]

We've been far, far away from here
Put on a poncho, played for mosquitos
And everywhere in between
Well, o.k. we get along
So what if right now everything's wrong?

[Chorus]
