Happiness Songtext

von Ben Lee

If you wanna fix a problem, then you gotta be happy.
Being happy is the only way out of the mess.
If you wanna fix a problem, then you gotta be happy
‘cause happiness creates happiness!

If you wanna paint a picture then you gotta pick a color.
To begin, you pick a color the eye likes best.
If you wanna paint a picture then you gotta make it happy
‘cause happiness creates happiness!

And oh, everybody I know is trying to make their way home but they've forgotten the address.
They can't find happiness!

Wanna find a reason, now, a reason to be happy?
How about the reason you're about to take a breath?
If you're waiting for a reason, then you might never be happy
‘cause happiness creates happiness!

If you're cookin' a spaghetti and it gets a little messy,
Well, you're never gonna fix it if you get too stressed.
If you're a cookin' a spaghetti then you gotta be happy
‘cause happiness creates happiness!

And oh, everybody I know is trying to make their way home but they've forgotten the address.
They can't find happiness!

Happiness is sweeter if you lick it off the beater, if you dress up nice to meet her, if you buy it by the liter.
Happiness if better if you wear it like a sweater,
If you write it in a letter, if you're grateful when you get her.
Happiness is free and you can start it from a seed and then you grow it like a tree and then invite it in for tea.
Happiness is tenderness, and glorious, and emptiness.
And happiness is everywhere. Everywhere is happiness!

Oh, everybody I know is trying to make their way home but they've forgotten the address.

If you wanna fix the planet, then you gotta understand it.
You can get a little sad, but don't get depressed.
If you wanna fix the planet then you gotta be happy
‘cause happiness creates happiness!

If you wanna fix a problem, then you gotta be happy.
Being happy is the only way out of the mess.
If you wanna fix a problem, then you gotta be happy
‘cause happiness creates happiness!

Happy! Are you ready to be happy? (to be happy)
Happy! Are you ready to be happy? (I'm ready!)
