they’re no better
but they look so great together
i’m no better
but whoever makes you happy
i wish you the best

what misfortune that she loves the man
who's in love with the brightest of the land
and there’s little hope for her to have a chance
oh the irony of not
wanting anything or anyone
and falling all the same for such a man

so go on and court the sunshine queen
i know it’s not the end of the world for me
if you’re happy
just be happy
then i’m happy too
i’m not but i will be happy
for you

it’s too real can she stop thinking about
his smile and his style and the way that his mouth
laughs and talks about things that are everything
that she loves
that he loves

there’s no way she can envy
this sunshine queen
there’s no reason for her heart
to turn bright green with envy
yes it simply can’t be justified
inside her head she knows their love is fine
if it’s true
and there’s nothing she can do

so go on and court the sunshine queen
i know it’s not the end of the world for me
if you’re happy
just be happy
then i’m happy too
i’m not but i will be happy
for you

so go on and court the sunshine queen
i know it’s not the end of the world for me
if you’re happy
please be happy
then i’m happy too
i’m not but i will try
i will try
i will try
to be happy
for you
