Happy Now

from The Human Wilderness by Jeff Smith

lyrics

You should see the way that Mimi's turned out
She's thrown away the bottle and she's done herself proud
She smokrd her last cigarette a month ago
She's feeling better and it's starting to show
And She's met a man she thinks she's starting to care about

Now it's interesting to me to see the people she knew
When she was out and inviting abuse
They treat like she's still the same
And there is some resentment because of the change
And she's made a new set of friends who don't write her off

She was always suicides sister
She was strung out in a terminal funk
She swore thet the devil had kissed her
That's how she lived her life when she was young

Mimi says she's been worried a lot
Thinkin' about things she never though
Regretting all the time she spent spinning her wheels
Getting out from under what she thought were good deals
She laughs about it now, I think she's happy

She was always suicides sister
She was strung out in a terminal funk
She swore thet the devil had kissed her
That's how she lived her life when she was young
