Why look so awfully tragic?
Put on a happy face
Smiling can work like magic
Put on a happy face
Take off that gloomy mask of tragedy, It's not your style
You'll look so goo d
That you'll be glad
You decided to smile
Pick out a pleasant outlook
Stick out that noble chin
Wipe off that full of doubt look
Slap on a happy grin
And spread sunshine all over the place Just, put on a happy face
Gray skies are gonna to clear up
Put on a happy face
Brush off the clouds and cheer up
Put on a happy face
Why do you mope around so sourly,
It's such a strain
I always try to chuckle outwardly,
It clears the brain.
I knew a girl so gloomy
She'd never laugh or sing
She wouldn't listen to me
Now she's a mean ol' thing
So spread sunshine all over the place Just, put on a happy face
