Harry Nilsson - Joy lyrics

The other day, I met a girl named Joy

She said, "Come here, I'm going to make you my Joy Boy"

Well, things went good, things went bad

Now every time I think of Joy it makes me sad

It makes me . . . sad

The other day, I met a girl named Joy

She said, "Roy, I'm going to make you my Joy Boy"

Well, she took me for a ride, sort of a joy ride

Now every time I think of Joy, I get all weird inside

Joy to the world was a beautiful girl

But to me Joy meant only sorrow

Now, if you haven't got an answer, you'd never have a question

And if you never had a question, then you'd never have a problem

But if you never had a problem, well everyone would be happy

But if everyone was happy, there'd never be a love song

Joy to the world was a beautiful girl

But to me Joy meant only sorrow

The other day, I met a girl named Joy

She said, "Come here, I'm going to make you all clammy inside"

Well, things went good, things went bad

Things went good and things went bad

Good, bad, good, bad, good, bad

Joy to the world was a beautiful girl

But to me Joy meant only sorrow

Joy to the world was a beautiful girl

But to me Joy meant only sorrow
