It might seem crazy what I am 'bout to say
Sunshine she's here, you can take a break (come on)
I'm a hot air balloon that could go to space
With the air, like I don't care, baby, by the way (huh)

(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you know what happiness is to you
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like that's what you wanna do

Here come bad news, talking this and that (yeah)
Well, give me all you got, don't hold it back (yeah)
Well, I should probably warn ya, I'll be just fine (yeah)
No offence to you, don't waste your time
Here's why

(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you know what happiness is to you
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like that's what you wanna do

(Hey, come on, uh) (happy)
Bring me down, can't nothin' (happy)
Bring me down, my level's too high (happy)
Bring me down, can't nothin' (happy)
Bring me down, I said (I'll tell you now)
(Happy, happy, happy, happy) Bring me down, can't nothin'
(Happy, happy, happy, happy) Bring me down, my level's too high
(Happy, happy, happy, happy) Bring me down, can't nothin'
(Happy, happy) Bring me down, I said

(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you know what happiness is to you
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like that's what you wanna do

(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you know what happiness is to you
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like that's what you wanna do

(Hey, come on, uh)
(Happy, happy, happy, happy) Bring me down, can't nothin'
(Happy, happy, happy, happy) Bring me down, my level's too high
(Happy, happy, happy, happy) Bring me down, can't nothin'
(Happy, happy) Bring me down, I said

(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you know what happiness is to you (ayy-ayy-ayy)
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like that's what you wanna do

(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you know what happiness is to you (hey-hey)
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like that's what you wanna do

Ha, come on

Lisa then comes to the rescue, with Williams also appearing and offering to write a new anthem for the town.

It is based on the true story about a Milwaukee TV station in the Eighties hiring a composer to write a song for the local town.
