Lyrics Janelle Monáe – Open Happiness
Text:
Well hello, is this thing on?
Is anybody listening?
A brand new day has begun
The first thing that I want do
So I’m not the only one
C’mon and lift me up, it’s a brand new day
Open up a little happiness today
So I can be someone new (so I can be someone new)
C’mon and lift me up to a better way
Open up a smile on another face
So I can feel something new
Open up, open up some happiness
4x
Ahem ahem
Let me clear my throat
So you can hear clearly every word spoke
Today I woke feeling lovely
Happiness overflowin’ knowin’ somebody loves me
Just think yesterday I was down and out
Now there’s not a single thing for me to frown about
And the same thing can happen to you
Smiling so hard my mouth look like a capital «U»
Yeah, I want the sun to shine
All the time
Is that too much to ask
Oh, I want to have some fun
I want all my friends to come
‘Cause it’s now or never
Learn the words and sing together
C’mon and lift me up, it’s a brand new day
Open up a little happiness today
So I can be someone new (so I can be someone new)
C’mon and lift me up to a better way
Open up a smile on another face
So I can feel something new
Your heart deserves your trust
A choice made by all of us
The sun will come back tomorrow
There’s a message in the bottle
So come on I’ll meet you there
There’s enough sunshine to share
As long as you know
The bridge between us is a rainbow
C’mon and lift me up, it’s a brand new day
Open up a little happiness today
So I can be someone new (so I can feel something new)
C’mon and lift me up to a better way
Open up a smile on another face
So I can feel something new
Open up, open up, open happiness
Open up, open up some happiness
3x
Open up, open up, open happiness
6x
