[Intro]
(Bet you wanna be happy)
[Verse 1]
Ooh-ooh, you're revolutionary
You're like a phantom taking a leap
Your heart is legendary
Bet you are feeling so high
Ah-ooh, you have a higher power
Telepathic, talk to me
Make me whole again, whole again
Whole like I used to be
[Pre-Chorus]
Happy like you
Happy
[Chorus]
Won't you humanise me?
Use all your wisdom, show me joy in everything
I've been clouded by machines, oh
Lost my way deep inside another screen
All I wanna be is happy, happy, oh, happy like you
All I wanna be is happy, happy, oh, happy like you

Time is a song that forms you (Ah-ooh)
Oh, I hope you

Won't you humanise me?
Use all your wisdom, show me joy in everything

Lost my way deep inside another screen
All I wanna be is happy, happy, oh, happy like you
All I wanna be is happy, happy, oh, happy like you
