I'd like to say a thing or two About this song I sing for you These are not the words you thought you knew To Happy Days Are Here Again There's a reason for the switch I'm making a creative pitch With the words I wrote without a hitch To Happy Days Are Here Again I came to show you my style My name is Cynthia Weil W-E-I-L My lyrics will be slick and smart Reminding you of Lorenz Hart And we'll both sing when we top the chart Happy Days Are Here Again! Take me home! You want a sonnet I'll get right on it I like a good rhyme More than a good time My pen's on fire And I'm for hire Donny let me write for you
