Lyrics

Happy As Happy Can Be

What if I were a flower?
What if you were a bee?
Over and over, we'd meet again,
And you'd be so happy with me.

What if I were a bird?
What if you were a tree?
Over and over, we'd meet again,
And be happy as happy can be.

These are some things that go together,
Like a family,
Things that go together,
Like friends, like you and me.

What if I were a cup?
What if you were some tea?
Over and over, we'd fill me up,
And you'd be so happy with me.

And if I were a lock,
Then you'd be a key.
Over and over we'd open me up,
And I'd be happy and free.

Happy as happy,
Happy as happy,
Happy as happy,
Happy as happy can be!
