The Ataris - Perfectly Happy Lyrics

The Ataris Lyrics

"Perfectly Happy"

Won't be another statistic
Won't be a minority
I'll achieve every goal I have
There's not a thing that I can't be
Just as long as I am happy
That's all that matters to me

I'll walk away from this place
On that unhappy day
That I have to follow rules
This so-called book you go by
Was written for a fool

Maybe now you understand
Life from my point of view
I've got my head on straight
But have no urge to be like you
Oh sure, I strive for a better life
But is that so fucking wrong?

Change in my pocket
Girl by my side
Perfectly happy
