Happy happy happy happy



Man i drove down to Ghent in my underwear

i went lookin for some new funny clothes to wear

i was feelin strange

i'd say a little deranged



So i walk on in this funky place

just to see what kinda groove that i could trace

i saw her face

and her elegant taste



dancin to a disco was the bananaqueen

thourougly surrounded by her royal bananakin

i was amazed

she put a smile on my face



she said:

hey man

you shouldn't be worried 'bout the good or the bad

or all them stories

just a slowly point your life

in the right direction

and live it up to the max of true satisfaction



Hey

My life is okay

{repeat a few times}



maybe she was french or african or german

but it didn't really matter to the people that were turning

to the left

to the right

the way they moved was out of sight

man i had to get busy giving everything

everything



oooooooooooh man just give me everything EVERYTHING



She had a afroceltic fire and a philosophic trill

she had the muscles of a giant with a delicate skill

she had the softness of a mama and the kindness of a granny

she was yelling like James Brown Joyce Donkey Daddy



Now you may think the queen was some doctrinial fool

or like a monkey doing tricks around a touristic crew

i'd say a this here character was nothing like that

i think the forces of this planet

all were bound in this cat



I said:

Hey

My life is okay

{repeat until end}
