Empty Hats – Happy Man lyrics

Happy Man by Empty Hats

If I'm a happy man today
I don't know about tomorrow
Will I be in ecstasy,
or deep in debt and sorrow?
There's a pint upon the table
and another on the way
and with my friends beside me
I'm a happy man today.

There are those who rush about
in a panic and a hurry
others lie in bed on their backs, worry
all this care and bustle
hold the door and lock at last
we'll all end up in safety
pushing daisies from avast

If I'm a happy man today
I don't know about tomorrow
Will I be in ecstasy,
or deep in debt and sorrow?
There's a pint upon the table
and another on the way
and with my friends beside me
I'm a happy man today.
------------
I suppose that there are many
whose lives are red red roses
and they only have to plant'em
and hold them to their noses
and theirs them upon the slaggy
but if they search and pray
there's a chip of glass that glisten
like a diamond in the day

If I'm a happy man today
I don't know about tomorrow
Will I be in ecstasy,
or deep in debt and sorrow?
There's a pint upon the table
and another on the way
and with my friends beside me
I'm a happy man today.
-----------
Well, I don't have all the answers
yet I am filled with questions
and the worries of the world
won't be solved on my suggestions
But here's one proposal
that you LIFT YOUR GLASS AND SAY
I DON'T KNOW ABOUT TOMORROW
BUT I'M A HAPPY MAN TODAY

If I'm a happy man today
I don't know about tomorrow
Will I be in ecstasy
or deep in debt and sorrow?
There's a pint upon the table
and another on the way
and with my friends beside me
I'm a happy man today.

If I'm a happy man today
I don't know about tomorrow
Will I be in ecstasy,
or deep in debt and sorrow?
There's a pint upon the table
and another on the way
and with my friends beside me
and with my friends beside me
and with my friends beside me
I'm a happy man today.
