Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Hey, gray skies are gonna clear up
Put on a happy face
Brush off the clouds and cheer up
Put on a happy face
[Verse 2]
Take off the gloomy mask of tragedy
It's not your style
You'll look so good that you'll be glad
You decide to smile
[Verse 3]
Pick out a pleasant outlook
Stick out that noble chin
Wipe off that full of doubt look
Slap on a happy grin
[Verse 4]
And spread sunshine all over the place
And put on a happy face
[Verse 5]
Gray skies are gonna clear up
Put on a happy face
Brush off the clouds and cheer up
Put on a happy face
[Verse 6]
And if you're feeling cross and bickerish
Don't sit and whine
Think of banana splits and licorice
And you'll feel fine
[Verse 7]
I know a girl so gloomy
She'd never laugh or sing
She wouldn't listen to me
Now she's a mean old thing
[Verse 8]
So spread sunshine all over the place
And put on a happy, happy face
Put on a happy, happy, happy face
Oh, come on, Bubby, smile it's your birthday
