I don't believe what I'm hearin'

You can't impress me by what you show me

Don't think I am goin' through changes

Or you might see me change for the last time



Having a bad day

Better deal with it

If you're playin' games

No time for it

If you're bringin' pain

Gonna run from it

Don't mess up my day





I'm the only one who's responsible

For me havin' fun

And you can't change that





CHORUS:

Happiness is what my life's about

Happiness no I can't do without

Happiness nothing can stop me now

Through ups and downs I'm still happy





Life is as good as I make it

I can't sit while you make it for me

I like those jewels you gave me

But I wanna buy some jewels for myself

To lose the ball and chain

Gotta reach for it

Nothin' comes for free

Gotta reach for it

No I'm not gonna have to depend on you





I'm the only one

Who's responsible

For me having fun

And you can't take my





CHORUS
