Happy Ending Lyrics

Joe Jackson - Happy Ending
Intro:
Verse 1:
I'm in a movie,
where boy meets girl.
What happens to me
in this brave new world?
Do I listen to my heart? Do I listen to my head?
Do I look at what I see, or remember what I read?
When I tell you how I feel do I wonder what I say?
Is there nothing we can do about it?
Anyone, anyone can be so hardhearted;
but everyone, still everybody
wants an happy ending.
La la la la la la la la la la
Verse 2:
It's not so easy,
it's eighty four now.
How tough must we be
to ask for more, now?
Chorus 2:
Do I listen to my head? Do I listen to my heart?
Do I try to feel the same, as I do when we're apart?
Do I think about the end when it's only just the start?
Is there nothing we can do about it?
Anyone, anyone can be so hardhearted;
but everyone, still everybody
wants a happy ending.
La la la la la la la la la la
Bridge:
I get so scared when I see
the evidence against our case.
Each movie so far this year
ends up with someone crying,
or even someone dying

Chorus 3:
Do I listen to my head? Do I listen to my heart?
Do I try to feel the same, as I do when we're apart?
Do I think about the end when it's only just the start?
Is there nothing we can do about it?
Anyone, anyone can be so hardhearted;
but everyone, still everybody
wants a happy ending.
