The Happiness Tree
Cloudy days are a real test
They can drag our spirits down
But I'm usually up for the challenge
In my role as the village clown
My goal is to bring a great big smile
To a bunch of faces each day
What better way to spend my energy
Than to chase all the blues away
If we could all get with the program
What a happy place this could be
Instead of a bunch of sour pusses
We would climb the happiness tree
Not saying I have all the answers
We've got lots of problems on earth
Hope we're headed in the right direction
Let's celebrate the world's rebirth
Cloudy days are a real test
They can drag our spirits down
But this guy won't let the blues inside
You won't catch me wearing a frown
