Lyrics Happiness Is A Chemical - Darren Hanlon

Happiness Is A Chemical

On the glass that wraps the telephone box
An impatient bystander knocks
The receiver, put it back back down in it’s place
In the some things should be said to the face
I’m a believer
You’re stripped of all your worldly powers
And staring at the opposite apartment block for hours
You say that each window is just a TV channel
And you’d surrender all your so-called friends for flowers
And you’d rather be sleeping in the paddocks with the horses
While the stars cross the sky’s on their prescribed courses
Can you take me with you when you go?
Because love is just a lazy generalisation that we use for 100 different
feelings and as many situations
Going through each others pockets is not like us and flattery should get you
somewhere and your happiness is just a chemical
A constant feeling you’re being watched
All your good intentions so clumsily botched
A kiss sent down the telephone line can come out sounding like a bug getting
squashed
And grasshoppers fling erratic parabolas
While you’re drowning ants with your can of cola
Can you take me with you when you go?
Because love is just a lazy generalisation that we use for 100 different
feelings and as many situations
Going through each others pockets is not like us and flattery should get you
somewhere and your happiness is just a chemical
It’s just a chemical
Separate the parts and give them titles
Lungs are for songs and eyes are for feasting
And butter’s for a bee sting
Can somebody please check my vitals?
Because love is just a lazy generalisation that we use for 100 different
feelings and as many situations
Finding things others pockets isn’t always a plus and that sensation that you
felt up the back of the bus is just a chemical
Yeah happiness is just a chemical
Yeah it is
