Why am I working?
Why am I slaving?
What am I doing? I don't know!
Why am I walking? Why am I moving?
Where am I going? Why do I go?
Who am I kidding? Why am I living?
Who can tell? Is there a reason
The world is freezin'?
Or are we headed straight for hell?
Oh, be happy, be kind
Don't let the world destroy your mind
Oh, no, don't let it get you down
There's always some love still left around
Oh won't you be . . . happy?
Oh let your world be filled with peace
Oh won't you be . . . happy?
This is before we all die in a usless catastrophe
What are you saying? Should I be praying?
Are you pretending, do you lie?
What are you reasons? Should I believe you?
Do you even have an alibi?
Who are you kidding? Why should I listen?
I've heard this crap a hundred times before
I've heard all the reasons, who are you teasing?
I'll tell you something you ain't screwing me no more!
Oh, be happy, be kind
Don't let the world destroy your mind
Oh, no, don't let it get you down
There's always some love still left around
Oh won't you be . . . happy?
Oh let your world be filled with peace
Oh won't you be . . . happy?
This is before we all die in a usless catastrophe
C'mon! Criticize me! Lobotomize me!
Adjust my personality
Segregate me, evaluate me
Incarcerate me, don't set me free
Rearrange me, come on and change me
Try and show me wrong from right
From your abusing, I know I'm losing
But I'm not about to give up the fight
Oh, be happy, be kind
Don't let the world destroy your mind
Oh, no, don't let it get you down
There's always some love still left around
Oh won't you be . . . happy?
Oh let your world be filled with peace
Oh won't you be . . . happy?
That is before we all die in a useless catastrophe
