Mother's little helper
Is coming to save me now
I feel I have to tell her
You're my one and only now

And every silver lining
Is bound to have its cloud
I'm picking up on something
A little more uncomfortable

It's not like you can save me
Your sentimental touches can be such a drag

I'm happy, so happy
I think it's gonna come around
I'm happy, so happy

I don't have to stay
I don't have to call
I don't have to walk before I crawl
I'm happy to be where I am

Does anybody wonder
About the thoughts I say?
Anybody ponder
When my life slips away

Just to let it all be
Oh no, is like the auto-da-fé
I'm picking up on something
That's bound to make your day

It's better to be careless
You know your happy endings
Can be such a drag

I'm happy, so happy
I think it's gonna come around
I'm happy, so happy

I don't have to stay
I don't have to call
I don't have to walk before I crawl
I'm happy to be where I am

I'm happy that you want me
But on that I see your guess
Everyday you haunt me
With torturing duress

Bitter sweet is alright
And hell, why settle for less
The way I'm leaving you now
Should leave you doubly impressed

Don't you think to call me no more
Your antiquated notions
Can be such a drag (such a drag)

I'm happy, so happy, ooohhh
(I'm happy, so happy, ooohhh)

Happy, so happy, ooohhh
I think it's gonna come around
I'm happy, so happy, ooohhh

I don't have to stay
I don't have to call
I don't have to walk before I crawl
I'm happy to be where I am

I'm happy to be where I am...
I'm happy to be where I am...
