Get happy
Get Happy Today: Unveiling Life's Joys Through Jord Allen's Melody
Lyrics
Verse 1
Introduction of a daughter and a son
Well along came a daughter and along came a son
Metaphorical action - Jumping off a cliff, leading to no one
Jumped off a cliff and then there was none
Emphasizing the repetition of a situation
It’s the same it’s the same
Highlighting similarity or monotony
Daddy’s working hard working for a dime
Father working hard for a modest income
But he can’t drive a car to his son’s game time
Frustration as the father can't attend his son's game due to limitations
It’s the same it’s the same
Reiteration of a repetitive and challenging scenario
Bridge
Transition to a bridge section
Food for the poor and the rich want more
Contrast between the needs of the poor and the insatiable desires of the rich
It’s the same
Emphasizing the similarity despite societal differences
People on the street can be people that you meet
Commonality between people regardless of their status
It’s the same
Highlighting the monotony in various activities
If you’re walking or tapping your feet it’s the same
Whether walking or tapping feet, the routine remains unchanged
It’s the same
Repetition for emphasis on the unchanging nature
It’s the same
Continuation of the repetitive theme
Chorus
Shift to the chorus
Well I’m saying
Expression of a desire to be happy
Wake up wake up were gonna get happy today
Encouragement to wake up and embrace happiness
Get up get up get out of bed you sleepy head
Command to get out of bed and start the day positively
Cheer up Charlie were gonna wash those blues away
Addressing someone named Charlie, urging them to cheer up
I said oh oh were gonna get happy
Repetition of the declaration to get happy
I said oh oh were gonna get happy
Continued declaration of the intention to be happy
Verse 2
Introduction of a new scenario in the second verse
Well a kid ran out of home and he left his family
A child leaving home, seeking a different path
Ran into the jungle and he brought himself a tree
The child finding solace in nature, represented by the jungle and a tree
Got himself some sticks and he worked there for a while
Engaging in a simple and fulfilling activity, working with sticks
Every time you see that kid that kid he wears a smile
The positive transformation reflected in the child's smile
Chorus
Return to the chorus
Well I’m saying
Reiteration of the call to wake up and embrace happiness
Wake up wake up were gonna get happy today
Encouragement to rise from bed and face the day positively
Get up get up get out of bed you sleepy head
Addressing a sleepy individual, urging them to get up
Cheer up Charlie were gonna wash those blues away
Direct address to Charlie, reinforcing the message to dispel sadness
I said oh oh were gonna get happy
Repetition of the declaration to get happy
I said oh oh oh oh
Extended declaration of the intention to be happy
