Lyrics Harry Nilsson

Harry Nilsson

Joy

The other day I met a girl named Joy

She said come here,

I'm gonna make you my joy boy

Well, things went good and things went bad

Now everytime 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 gonna make you my joy boy

Well, she took me for a ride

Sort of a joy ride

Now everytime I think of Joy

I get all weird inside

Oh, Joy to the world

Was a beautiful girl

But to me Joy meant only sorrow

Now--if you haven't got an answer

Then you haven't got 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 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 wanna make you feel all clammy inside

Things went good good and things went bad

Things went good... things went bad

Good, bad, good, bad, good, bad

Joy to the world

Was a beautiful girl

But to me Joy meant only sorrow

Oh, Joy to the world

Was a beautiful girl

But to me Joy meant only sorrow

Joy, I know you're out there

I want you to turn on your radio and listen to my song
