Knowing that Yauch is involved with Buddhist practices, it occurs to me that this may be a reference to the Lojong slogan which translates loosely as "always rely only on a happy mind". Lojong is a practice centered on a series of slogans to use to train the mind. www.lojongmindtraining.com
The fact that the only concept in this song is "lighten up = shine like the sun" seems to fit the simplicity of this slogan "always rely ONLY on a happy mind". Nothing else is really necessary.
