Happy Ending Lyrics By Joe Jackson

    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
