Buddhist Song

edited December 2013 in Arts & Writings
A friend challenged me to write a "happy" song, as many of my songs are rather bleak (but true).
Here is what I came up with:

World’s goin’ down
Ain’t no two ways
All we’ve ever had
Is numbered days

But I’m happy
I am so happy

Justice don’t exist
It never did
If you got the wealth
Then it’s your bid

But I’m happy
I am so happy

That’s just the way that things are here
And have always been
Don’t live your life
In a dream
Wake up and see what’s real

It’ll make you happy
You’ll be so happy

Freedom is a ruse
When used this way
It keeps the sheep together
So they can fleece us as they may

But I’m happy
I am so happy

Don’t worry at all
It’ll do no good
What will be will be
So we should do as we should

That makes me happy
I am so happy

That’s just the way that things are here
And have always been
Don’t live your life
In a dream
Wake up and see what’s real

That’s just the way that things are here
And have always been
Don’t live your life
In a dream
Wake up and see what’s real

It’ll make you happy
You’ll be so happy

    Your song makes me happy.
    Is it set to music?
    I am happy if not or if . . .

    Now back to the chorus . .
