Woo woo, set me up, [A] set me up
You can call me Daryl, [C] I wish I said James
Maybe [D] if I'm close I'll be his lame
I don't even care [C] if I'm a dumbass
Don't wanna be a scumbag [Gm] like other rats

[Em]
[A] [E] I'm just calling you happy [F#] [G] today
[A] Right now, [E] when you lose the flow
It's all out of style, there's no way to find
Break out of your mind, rise up, no head
There's no fun inside, when justice is ready
I said it's call me happy [F#] today
[Em] [A] I [E] said it's call me [F#] happy [G] today
[A]
Even if [E] you're lost, come in the [A] crowd

[A] [E] I said it's call me happy [F#]
[G] today
[A] [E]
They're closing their schools, they're burning their books
Their bars have been ruined, their beats are on hooks
The chains are lashed, the TV's been banned
The job is in power, [B]
and the government's around
There's no fun inside, [A] [D]

I said it's call me [F#] happy today
[G]
[E] I said it's call me happy today
[F#] [G]

You must [G] bear in mind [C] that [B] these studios [D] are haunted by the Who
That was the [G] band with [E] Smash It Up
And I just can't be happy today
I think they should have sold us
[D] [A]
