There's a man sitting down by the 405 Hitting some kind of tune on his raving guitar He seems stranded a desert of a million dreams Just like life hasnt been exactly as nice as it seems
Hello! How are you? Why are you looking so sad on a day this? Do you like talking? Now you got me started I wanna see a smile on your clueless face - Yeah Yeah
You could be so happy on this brand new beautiful You could be so happy like kids getting ready to play Come on and bring it on, on and on Nothing that you do is wrong Come along and drag it on You can be so happy
You say your girlfriend is pretty - Yeah Shes waiting at home Got a safe job And you can call a little house and a chevy your own It all seems perfect but aint perfect just as boring as Youve been craving for this And now youre stuck just like a snail in its shell
All that matters is that you can be free live your life the way you sincerely feel it life's too short You dont wanna be a prisoner of your own illusions And I shout it out
You could be so happy - yeah you got somebody to love You could be so happy - Aint that good enough Aint no use to sit and drag it thinking bout the mess youve done - Nothings wrong, just bring it on You could be so happy
Theres a man sitting down by the 405 Got a smile on his face - Thinking: a wonderful life'
