Very Happy Song

< Music | < This Way Up

Lyrics

You ring me up to let me know
That I should write a song for you
That lifts the soul
Something light, not my specialty
Maybe something more like you
And less like me

So I wrote this for you
You can pass it around
And play it while the ship’s goin’ down

Here it is, sing along
LIke every one of us is oblivious
To what’s goin’ on
Sing it out, loud and strong
I hope you like this very happy song

The end is near, it’s bombs away
There goes my pension plan
And 401K
Up in smoke just like that
Went from hope to broken
In two seconds flat

Hear no evil, speak no evil
Just watch the show
Three little monkeys all in a row

Here it is, sing along
Like every one of us is oblivious
To what’s goin’ on
Sing it out, loud and strong
I hope you like this very happy song

We’re americans, proud and strong
If all that we have left is this song

So here it is, sing along
Like every one of us is oblivious
To what’s goin’ on
Sing it out, loud and strong
I hope you like this very
Sardonic and contrary
Extra ordinary happy song
