Joe Jackson - Happy Ending Lyrics






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've said?
Is there nothing we can do about it?

Anyone
Anyone can be so hard hearted
But everyone
Still everybody wants a happy ending

It's not so easy, it's '84 now
How tough must we be to ask for more now?
Do I listen to my head, do I listen to my heart?
Do I try to feel the same as I feel 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 hard hearted
But everyone
Still everybody wants a happy ending

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

Do I listen to my head, do I listen to my heart?
Do I try to feel the same as I feel 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 hard hearted
But everyone
Still everybody wants a happy ending

    In the middle of making a short film and I thought about this from my distant past. Every one wants a happy ending. Googled it and holy fuck it was Joe Jackson. I never knew who Joe Jackson was back in '84. To be honest I thought it was Michael's brother. Well there were so many Jacksons bringing out songs back then can you blame me?

  12. C.... H....

    Holy shit, so fucking catchy!

  13. B.... C....

    Sorry, this one is terrible Joe. Big fan of a lot of his other stuff, and I like a lot of cheesy stuff so its not that, it sounds like the Home and Away theme music or something.
