[Verse 1:] There's a man sitting down by the 405 Hitting some kind of tune on his raving guitar He seems stranded in a desert Of a million dreams Just like life hasn't been exactly as nice as it seems Hello, how are you? Why are you looking so sad on a day like this? Do you feel like talking? Now you got me started I wanna see a smile upon your clueless face Yeah [Chorus:] You could be so happy On this brand new beautiful day You could be so happy Hey Like kids getting ready to play Come on and bring it on On and on Nothing that you do is wrong Come along And don't drag it on You could be so happy On this brand new beautiful day [Verse 2:] You say your girlfriend is pretty She's waiting at home Got a safe job And you can call a little house And Chevy your own It all seems perfect But ain't perfect just as boring as hell You've been craving for this And now you're stuck just like a snail in its shell All that matters is that You can be free to live your life The way you sincerely feel it Cause life's too short You don't wanna be A prisoner of your own illusions And I shout it out [Chorus:] You could be so happy You got somebody to love You could be so happy Ain't that good enough Ain't no use to sit And drag it on Thinking about the mess you've done Nothing's wrong Just bring it on You could be so happy You got somebody to love Na, na, na, na, na, na Na, na na Na, na na Na, na na Na, na, na Na na, na, na, na, na Na, na na na na Na, na na na Na, na na Na, na na na Na, na na na Na, na na na [Chorus:] You could be so happy On this brand new beautiful day You could be so happy Like kids getting ready to play Come on and bring it on On and on Nothing that you do is wrong Come along And come bring it on You could be so happy Ain't that good enough Ain't no use to sit and drag it on Think about the mess you've done Nothing's wrong Just bring it on You could be so happy You got somebody to love I see a man sitting down by the 405 Got a smile on his face Thinking What a wonderful life
