Makin' Happy Lyrics

(Happy, so happy)
(So happy) ah ooh-wee ooh ooh-wee ooh ooh-wee ooh-wee ooh-wee
Just makin' happy, makin' happy, happy, happy, happy
Just makin' happy, makin' happy, happy, happy, happy

(Happy) on a dark street in the back seat of his car
Him and her, where they're goin', they're goin' too far
On the floor by the door of her house
She screams "Ah-ooh", she sounds just like a mouse
Now picture you with me on a lonely beach
We'll see how high we both can reach
Can you hear us all say, ooh-wee

Just makin' happy, makin' happy, happy, happy, happy
Just makin' happy, makin' happy, happy, happy, happy
Why don't you make me happy
Why don't you make me happy
Ah ooh-wee ooh ooh-wee ooh ooh-wee ooh-wee ooh-wee
(So happy) ah ooh-wee ooh ooh-wee ooh

(So happy) you see him sing her in the rain in the middle ofnight
You just couldn't put up, put up a silly fight
You're in the tub, scrub and scrub, ah-ooh-ah
My baby just couldn't miss out on some of that fun
Now picture you with me on a lonely beach
We'll see how high we both can reach
Can you hear us all say, ooh-wee

Ah ooh-wee ooh ooh-wee ooh ooh-wee ooh-wee ooh-wee
(So happy) just makin' happy, makin' happy, happy, happy, happy
Just makin' happy, makin' happy, happy, happy, happy

On a dark street in the back seat of his car
Him and her, where they're goin', they're goin' too far
On the floor by the door of her house
She screams "Ah-ooh" (oh), she screams "Ah-ooh" (oh)
She screams "Ah-ooh" (oh), she screams "Ah-ooh" (oh)
She screams "Ah-ooh", she sounds just like a mouse
Now picture you with me on a lonely beach
We'll see how high we both can reach
Can you hear us all say, ooh-wee
Ah ooh-wee ooh ooh-wee ooh ooh-wee ooh-wee ooh-wee

(Happy) just makin' happy, makin' happy, happy, happy, happy
Just makin' happy, makin' happy, happy, happy, happy
Ah ooh-wee ooh ooh-wee ooh ooh-wee ooh-wee ooh-wee
(So happy) ah ooh-wee ooh ooh-wee ooh ooh-wee ooh-wee ooh-wee

(So happy) why don't you make me happy
(So happy) why don't you make me happy
(So happy) just makin' happy, makin' happy, happy, happy, happy
Just makin' happy, makin' happy, happy, happy, happy
Just makin' happy, makin' happy, happy, happy, happy
Ah ooh-wee ooh ooh-wee ooh ooh-wee ooh-wee ooh-wee
(So happy) ah ooh-wee ooh ooh-wee ooh ooh-wee ooh-wee ooh-wee
(So happy) why don't you make me happy

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.

These lyrics are missing part of the bridge: "It's so much better than feeling sad, there's something harder than being bad"

Personally, for me there has always been something sinister lurking in the lyrics but I can't quite put my finger on it. The mentioning of going too far and her sounding like a mouse (a timid and scared creature) and afterwards she is on the floor as if she collapsed.

Then the next section talks about how the she put up a fight and how the guy just couldn't miss out on any fun and she is scrubbing herself clean in her bathtub.

It almost sounds like date rape to me.

@afilaccio Sounds accurate. It seems a lot of her lyrics have deeper meaning or multiple interpretations.
