Pere Ubu - Not Happy lyrics

Can't we be happy? Can't we be happy like the swimming turtles, swimming turtles? Can't we be happy like the bumblebees on the River Tees? They buzz in harmonies! They buzz! They buzz in harmonies Can't we... Can't we be happy like them? I wanna know I am happy when you are happy And you are happy when I am happy So let's be happy! Ohhh, can't we be happy? Oh, can't we be happy? Can't we be happy like the tiny mice, the tiny mice? Can't we be happy like the oddball birds of South America? Happy Oh, the oddball birds of South America are happy Oh, can't we be happy like them? Oh, can't we be happy like them? (no no no no) Oh, can't we be happy like them? I am happy when you are happy And you are happy when I am happy So let's be happy! Oh, let's be happy (happy) Can't we be happy? (happy) Can't we be happy? (happy) Can't we be happy? (happy) Can't we be happy? I am happy when you are happy And you are happy when I am happy So let's be happy! Oh, let's be happy I like my tiny voices, I like my little dances I like my tiny voices and I like my little dances Can't we be happy? Can't we be happy? Can't we be happy? Can't we be? Can't, can't, can't we be? I like my tiny voices, I like my little dances I like my tiny voices, I like my little dances I like 'em! Can't we be happy?
