Happy Happy Happy

[Intro]

1999, A.D

More than a generation away, and yet dreams travel faster than light

And even now, scientists and planners are shaping the lives of our children who will live in the twenty-first century

[Verse 1]

I remember a past

That told us of a future

Rocket ships and flying cars

All the people lived on Mars

Boys and Girls all look the same

In PVC like leather

Auto-controls to clean the house

And even change the weather

[Verse 2]

Pills rеplaced the sex act

Wе all felt so much better

Hover bikes and monorails

Electricity that never fails

Sterilized and neutralized

Living in a bubble

RoboCops with laser beams

To dispel any trouble

[Chorus]

Happy, happy, happy

Never ever crying

We never had a problem

With state-assisted dying

Bland-on-bland and hand-in-hand

No killing or demeaning

A better life with little strife

And very little meaning

[Verse 3]

I loved your shiny uniform

Moulded 'round your uni-breast

[?] for mobile homes

And unisex for dress

We took a trip 'round Venus

And ate by intravenous

Saturn had the answer

For every space romancer

[Verse 4]

Where did all our hopes go?

All our naïve dreams go

Were they just science-fiction stories?

We'll never really know

We tried to teach the world to sing

We only war and famine bring

Don't kill them with your laser beam

And turn them into Soylent Green

[Chorus]

Happy, happy, happy

Never ever crying

We never had a problem

With state-assisted dying

Bland-on-bland and hand-in-hand

No killing or demeaning

A better life with little strife

And very little meaning

[Refrain]

Science-fiction stories

Told us of our future

Science-fiction stories

Told us of our future

Science-fiction stories

Told us of our future

Science-fiction stories

Told us of our future

[Outro]

And even now, scientists and planners are shaping the lives of our children who will live in the twenty-first century
