Happy
Artist: Pharrell Williams
It might seem crazy what I’m about to say
Sunshine she’s here, you can take away
I’m a hot air balloon, I could go to space
With the air, like I don’t care baby by the way
Because I’m happy
Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof
Because I’m happy
Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth
Because I’m happy
Clap along if you know what happiness is to you
Because I’m happy
Clap along if you feel like that’s what you want to do
Here comes bad news, talking this and that
Give me all you’ve got, don’t hold it back
Well, I should probably warn you, I’ll be just fine
No offense to you, don’t waste your time
Here’s why
(happy)
Bring me down
Can’t nothing bring me down
Your love is too high
Bring me down
Can’t nothing bring me down
I said (let me tell you now)
Bring me down
Can’t nothing bring me down
Your love is too high
Bring me down
Can’t nothing bring me down
I said
Background
Indeed “Happy” is a rather happy affair with a cheerful beat and exuberant vocal that would indicate that the former N.E.R.D singer is finding a lot of lighthearted fun to be had in both music and life. “Because I’m happy, clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth” sings Williams as the jaunty rhythm gets your head nodding.
Williams’ joyous mood is infectious for sure and if you find yourself in a bout of melancholy, stick it on, have a jig and you’ll soon find yourself smiling from the magical medicine of good music.
