Happy

(album: Tape Head - 1998)

Yeah, the rain came independence day
With an old flag, washed and raised
And the child sang, all fall down
No one heard it, not a sound
Yeah, the rain came turning gray
And the jury went out to play
Doesn't matter someone said
There's tomorrow, go to bed

(I be happy)
No drama, no trauma, down in the jungle, down in decay
(I be happy)
Getting over, getting older, something is different, something is changed

In the jungle where the beat is strong
Nothing's shocking, loud is long
Like the middle of a dream
I was woken when I screamed
I could never go back to that old prison of my youth
Move forward, someone said, you can make it
Watch your head

(I be happy)
No drama, no trauma, down in the jungle, down in decay
(I be happy)
Getting over, getting older, something is different, something is changed

When your world comes crashing down
And there ain't nothing you can do about it
And when everybody's done you wrong
And your feeling all toe down
Now the kingdom of everything's within
And to love yourself is not a sin
And if there's a light inside, it'll shine
If there's a light inside, it'll shine

(I be happy)
No drama, no trauma, down in the jungle, down in decay
(I be happy)
Getting over, getting older, something is different, something is changed
