Happily--Words & Music © Maria Sebastian, 2009
Officer I see you in my rear view mirror; surely I've been drinking, but I'm thinking clear
If you wanna take me in, I won't resist; throw me in that cell if you insist
See I've been trying to catch a break, but I can't find one; three walls and a cot seems like vacation; just give me time to read and a light so I can see; prison food ain't pretty but it's guaranteed
Chorus)
Happily, happily, lock me up and throw away the key
Peacefully, and quietly, finally, happily, I say happily
Well it's been a year and I'm still here and I've been doin' fine; I liken it to striking with a sign; lately I've been thinking what I'd write on mine: "Freedom? I don't need'em. I've got time."
Chorus
(Lock me up and eat the key)
Well it's been my estimation that this has been an education; please consider my suggestion on the shower situation; excuse me Mr. Station, but I've got reservations; if I leave now I can make last call at the Boneyard
Chorus
