Intro (Seulgi)
Sometimes, you gotta be bold!
Just rock the world! Boo-yah~

Hook (All, (Irene))
랄랄라 랄랄라 랄랄랄라 (Happiness)
랄랄라 랄랄라 랄랄랄라
(Are you happy? Uh~)

Verse 1 (Seulgi, Irene, Wendy)
고민은 Blow Up
꿀꿀한 기분 Change up
힘을 내려고 이제 Wind up
한 방에 멋진 일이 가득 Straight up
난 매일 더 Style up
기분 up 되는 일에 집중
내가 행복하게 사는
비결을 좀 말해볼까

Verse 2 (Joy, Wendy)
아침에 난 잠을 깨 엄마께
사랑한다고 말해
(어휴 착한 내 딸아)
줄줄 나를 따라온 Happy가
넘 귀여워서 행복해
(Uh, 얘가 말한대)

Refrain (Seulgi, Irene, Joy, Wendy)
이런 Money 저런 Power
그것만 따, 따, 따, 따라가다
어른들이 짠해 보여
그들은 정말 행복하지 않아
기쁜 일이 멋진 일이
세계는 참, 참, 참 많은 데라
그런 Money 그런 Power
우리는 관심도 끊어버린 지 오래

Pre-Hook (Irene, Joy)
달라 달라 나는 좀
해보고 싶은 그냥 하고 말지
고민 고민 하다가
어른이 되면 후회 많을 텐데
어제 오늘 내일도
행복을 찾는 나의 모험 일기
달라 달라 나는 좀
긍정의 힘을 나는 믿고 있지

Hook (All, (Wendy))
랄랄라 랄랄라 랄랄랄라 (Happiness)
랄랄라 랄랄라 랄랄랄라 (난 원해)
랄랄라 랄랄라 랄랄랄라 (꿈꾸자)
랄랄라 랄랄라 랄랄랄라
(Uh, are you happy? Uh~)

Verse 3 (Joy, Irene, Wendy)
학교 가는 길에 만난
친구 내게 달려와서
팔짱 끼고 웃어주니 좋고
끼리끼리 모여 정난치던
남자애들 내가
지나가니 의식해서 좋고
잔소리 하지만 세상에서
내가 제일 좋단 엄마
Hey hey, TV속에 싸움밖에
모르는 어른들 빼

Verse 4 (Seulgi)
점점 더 좋은걸
난 나라서 행복해
더 기분 좋은 건
내 곁에 너 있단 거
(Uh, What you wanna be?)

Refrain (Joy, Irene, Seulgi, Wendy)
이런 Money 저런 Power
그것만 따, 따, 따, 따라가다
어른들이 짠해 보여
그들은 정말 행복하지 않아
기쁜 일이 멋진 일이
세계는 참, 참, 참 많은 데라
그런 Money 그런 Power
우리는 관심도 끊어버린 지 오래

Pre-Hook (Joy, Irene)

Shine on me, Let it shine on me
내 두 팔에, Let it Shine

Worries Blow up
Feeling bad, Change up
Gather strength Wind up
Good things will happen at once Straight up
Everyday, I’m more Style up
Focus on things that make my mood up
My happy life
Should I tell you my secret?

When I wake up in the morning
I tell my mom I love her
(Aiyoo, my nice daughter)
The happy feelings following me
Are so cute it makes me happy
(Uh, she’s talking)

This money, that power
Only following that
Those adults look depressed
Those people are truly not happy
Happy things, good things
This world is full of them
That money, that power
We stopped carrying about those a long time ago

I’m a little different
I just do what I want to do
If you keep worrying
You’ll have a lot of regrets when you’re an adult
Yesterday, today, tomorrow too
My diary is full of finding happiness
I’m a little different
I believe in the strength of optimism

Lalala Lalala Lalalala (Happiness)
Lalala Lalala Lalalala (I want it)
Lalala Lalala Lalalala (Let’s dream)
Lalala Lalala Lalalala
(Uh, are you happy? Uh~)

My friend I met on the way to school
She came to me and
Linked arms with me and smiled, I’m happy
The group of
Prankster boys
They pay attention to me when I walk by, I’m happy
She may nag but in this world
She’s the best mom
Hey hey, take out the adults
Who do nothing but fight on TV

I like it more, little by little
I’m happy that I’m me
The thing that makes me happier
Is that you’re by my side
(Uh, What you wanna be?)

This money, that power
Only following that
Those adults look depressed
Those people are truly not happy
Happy things, good things
This world is full of them
That money, that power
We stopped carrying about those a long time ago

I’m a little different
I just do what I want to do
If you keep worrying
You’ll have a lot of regrets when you’re an adult
Yesterday, today, tomorrow too
My diary is full of finding happiness
I’m a little different
