Stew / The Negro Problem Lyrics

Very Happy

Love won’t make you cry.
But even if it does,
Blame it all on your present state of mind.
Love won’t tell you lies.
But even if it does,
I guess that’s what you wanted all the time.

Well, I didn’t know that.
Now I know that.
This will make you very happy.
You didn’t show that.
Now I know that.
This will make you very happy.

Love won’t fly away.
But even if it does,
Call it Lesson One and change your mind.
Love won’t take its toll on you.
But even if it does,
I guess that’s what you wanted all the time.

Say, I didn’t know that.
Now I know that.
This will make you very happy.
I didn’t show that.
But I didn’t know that.
This will make you very happy.

Love won’t make you cry.
But even if it does,
Blame it all on your present state of mind.
Love won’t tell you lies.
But even if it does,
I guess that’s what you wanted all the time.

Well, I didn’t know that.
Now I know that.
This will make you very happy.
Well, I didn’t know that.
Now I know that.
This will make you very happy.
