Happy Song

lyrics: MacGowan
time: 3:28
The live version is significantly different


Whenever I'm feeling scared now
'cause there's too many nicks in this town
Whenever I get so angry
'cause everyone's pushing me round
Whenever I'm feeling crazy
And everything is going wrong
I sing a happy song

Ahhh I don't care about nothing
I got no reason to cry
I got no reason for living
And I got no reason to die
Can't think my way out of a paper bag
I don't know what is going on
I sing a happy song

I go down to the centre of town
I wanna burn everything to the ground
Everybody is messing around
Everything is a breakdown

I don't care, don't know where I am
The situations nowhere, I don't give a damn
Everybody's gonna be happy
I believe in the human race
I wear a happy face

Have a nice day!

I don't care, don't know where I am
The situations nowhere, but I don't give a damn
And I can't think my way out of a paper bag
And I don't know what is going on
I sing a happy song

Goes like this
Bababa babababa
Bababa bababa
Bababa babababa
Bababa bababa

Sing a happy song
Happy mods, happy hippies
Always stoned, always tripping
Ian Page says good boys win
But I can only live by sin
Ian Page says wear a suit
Keep your pockets full of spending loot
Everything's gonna be all right
The mods are gonna dance all through the night
They're happy

Sing a happy song
I'm so happy I could cry!
