lyrics

Premises are open
Bottles have been broken
Waitress working overtime
I've done a little drinking
Drinking while I’m thinking
Thinking ‘bout this life of mine

They ask a lot if I’m happy or not
They ask a lot if I’m happy or not
“Are you happy, are you happy, are you happy or not?”

Found myself a true love
Got myself a new job
Everything I need and more
One day we’ll have children
What we gonna build them?
Wonder what we’re living for

They ask a lot if I’m happy or not
They ask a lot if I’m happy or not
“Are you happy, are you happy, are you happy or not?”

Well I’m sure it’s gonna be alright
Hallelujah Hallelujah
'Cause I’m gonna make it right
Happy New Year Happy New Year
No I don’t know what it’s all about
Have a good time Have a good time
But I’m gonna work it out
Hallelujah Happy New Year
Happy Happy Happy New Year
Happy Happy Happy New Year
Happy Happy Happy New Year
Happy Happy Happy New Year

Another bottle opened
Another promise broken
Waitress says it’s closing time
I’ve done a little drinking
Drinking while I’m thinking
Thinking ‘bout this life of mine

They ask a lot if I’m happy or not
They ask a lot if I’m happy or not
“Are you happy, are you happy, are you happy or not?
Are you happy, are you happy, are you happy or not?
Or not? Or not? Or not, or not, or not?"
