So How I Am Happy

You say I look happy
It makes me feel good
And when I feel happy
I feel as I should

You say I look crappy
It makes me feel bad
And when I feel crappy
It makes me feel sad

You can say I am snappy
I will bite your head off
Call you a hog when I get snappy
And you feed from a trough

It makes me feel snappy
When I snappy am told
And when I am snappy
I really am bold

If when I feel crappy
From what you did say
What I say will be crappy
Much to your dismay

So how I am happy
From what has been said
Within is the happy
In all that you read
