We're a Happy Family (Ramones cover) Lyrics

Una mas

We're a happy family
we're a happy family
we're a happy family
me mom and daddy

We're a happy family
we're a happy family
we're a happy family
me mom and daddy

Sitting here in Queens
eating refried beans
we're in all the magazines
gulpin' down thorazines
we ain't got no friends
our troubles never end
no Christmas cards to send
daddy likes men

Daddy's telling lies
baby's eating flies
mommy's on pills
baby's got the chills
I'm friends with the president
I'm friends with the pope
we're all making a fortune
selling daddy's dope

Sitting here in Queens
eating refried beans
we're in all the magazines
gulpin' down thorazines
we ain't got no friends
our troubles never end
no Christmas cards to send
daddy likes men

We're a happy family
we're a happy family
we're a happy family
me mom and daddy

We're a happy family
we're a happy family
we're a happy family
me mom and daddy...

we're a happy family
me mom and daddy

we're a happy family
me mom and daddy

We're a happy family
We're a happy family
ha-ha we're too happy
fami-family

We're a happy family
me mom and daddy

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Well the ramones did cretin hop as well and were very famous for doing the same 3 power chords over and over again (and yet they still had some really good songs - they were punk gods).
