Happiness

Monkey Majik

You know the pressure is
building up on me
The news has got me convinced
that everyone is guilty
Outside the rain is dripping,
"Oh so nice?"
But wouldn't go out,
couldn't just smile,
I couldn't be me
Confusion's got the better
part of me
And all you gotta do is
pretend that we are working
On a better world that's lost
all of its turning
It's like we never do a thing
Does that give you happiness?
Oh happiness!
Yeah happiness is
all I need from you
Yeah happiness is
all I need from you
And everybody seems to be
feeling the same way I do
What's new in the tabloids?
"The sky is falling on you!"
Maybe we are all crazy,
maybe we are just lazy
In time you'll realize,
yeah you just might
Maybe the world keeps turning
on its other side
And all we gotta do is
pretend that we are walking
Around a world
where a sun's still shining
The weather never does a thing
But it gives you happiness!
Oh happiness,
yeah happiness is
all I need from you
Yeah happiness is
hard for me and you
