Because I Am Snappy Apologies To Pharrell Williams

It might seem silly what I’m ‘bout to say
Fun rhyme is here. You can make a cake.
I’m a hot bear buffoon that could easily race.
With the wind, I don’t care, baby. It’s my way!

(Chorus)
Because I’m snappy! 
Clap along if you feel like a buffoon or a little goof.
Because I’m snappy!
Clap along if you feel snappiness is the truth!
Because I’m snappy!
Clap along if you know what friendliness is to you.
Because I’m snappy!
Clap along if you feel like that’s what you wanna do.

Here comes the sad news, walking this way and that (Yeah!)
Well give me all you got, don’t be selfish or hold back (Yeah!)
Well, I should probably warn ya, I’ll be just fine (Yeah!)
No offense to your snaps, don’t waste your time. Here’s why….

(Chorus)
Because I’m snappy! 
Clap along if you feel like a buffoon or a little goof.
Because I’m snappy!
Clap along if you feel snappiness is the truth!
Because I’m snappy!
Clap along if you know what friendliness is to you.
Because I’m snappy!
Clap along if you feel like that’s what you wanna do.

It may seem lazy what I’m ‘bout to say
Wind chime she’s here, you can jump in a lake.
I’m a hot aired buffoon that is losing the race.
With the wind, I don’t care baby, by the way.

(Chorus)
Because I’m snappy! 
Clap along if you feel like a buffoon or a little goof.
Because I’m snappy!
Clap along if you feel snappiness is the truth!
Because I’m snappy!
Clap along if you know what friendliness is to you.
Because I’m snappy!
Clap along if you feel like that’s what you wanna do.

Here comes some good news, talking mouse and cat (Yeah!)
Well give me all you got, don’t hold any cheese back (Yeah!)
Well, I should probably chase yah. I’ll get to you in time (Yeah).
No offense to you, rodent, don’t waste your time. Here’s why.
(Chorus)
Because I’m snappy! 
Clap along if you feel like a buffoon or a little goof.
Because I’m snappy!
Clap along if you feel snappiness is the truth!
Because I’m snappy!
Clap along if you know what friendliness is to you.
Because I’m snappy!
Clap along if you feel like that’s what you wanna do.
