Happy Mistake

  • I'm acting in this play of
    Comedy with tragic words
    The audience was smiling
    Cheering on a scene absurd

    I can try to hide behind the makeup
    But the show must go on

    I feel so crazy
    My head is filled with broken mirrors
    So many, I can't look away
    I'm in a bad way
    If I could fix the broken pieces
    Then I'd have a happy mistake

    A lonely disposition
    Portraits of a strung-out girl
    How'd I get so addicted
    To the love of the whole world?

    I could try to hide behind the makeup
    But the show must go on

    I feel so crazy
    My head is filled with broken mirrors
    So many I can't look away
    I'm in a bad way
    If I could fix the broken pieces
    Then I'd have a happy mistake

    If I could bottle up a sunny day
    So brilliantly
    It'd wash away the sad mistakes
    I could hold my heart in a safe place
    All I need to breathe
    Is one happy mistake
    Ooh
    Ooh-ah
    Make my happy mistake Writer/s: Mike Tucker, Stefani Germanotta
