I used to live in a darkened room   Had a face of stone and a heart of gloom   Lost my hope, I was so far gone   Crying all my tears with the curtains drawn   I didn't know until my soul broke free   I've got these angels watching over me      [Chorus:]   Oh watch me go   I'm the happy girl, everybody knows   That the sweetest thing that you've ever seen   In the whole wide world Is a happy girl      I used to hide in a party crowd   Bottled up inside, feeling so left out   Standing in the corner wearing concrete shoes   With my frozen smile and my lighted fuse      Now every time I start to feel like that   I roll my heart out like a welcome mat      [Chorus]      Laugh when I feel like it   Cry when I feel like it   That's just how my life is   That's how it goes      Oh watch me go   I'm the happy girl and I've come to know   That the world won't change just 'cause I complain   Let the axis twirl I'm the happy girl   Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah I'm the happy girl   Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah I'm the happy girl
