Vocal Stems- Happy (Team Smile and Nod)
Kara Square
New, improved, and extra campy! We (my band- Team Smile and Nod) decided to revisit this MMT track and enter it in the F!M!C 2011. The stems include vocals, bass, and synth. Our new version can be heard in the video below.

WORDS:
you go to work each day
to a job that hardly pays
with no hope for a raise
doin’ stuff that you hate
but it’s easy
and no one cares when you get there
or when you leave
what are you doin’?
what are you doin’ with your life?
what are you doin’?
what are you doin’ with you time?
so you get home
eat dinner all alone and pet your dog
and watch the evening news and go to bed
so you can get up
and go to that job that you hate
what are you doin’?
what are you doin’ with your life?
what are you doin’?
what are you doin’ with you time?
and then one day, just another day
you wake up and decide to skip a day of work
of that job that you hate- oh how you hate it
so you determine to have some fun
so you get out a pair of scissors
and decide to run around
b/c your parents always told you
you’d poke your eyes out
so you run and run and run
all around your house
you run and run and run
around your backyard
and then you trip
b/c you forgot to dig up that tree root
that’s protruding out of the ground
and all of a sudden you see blood
dripping on the grass
but you don’t see it that well
b/c you realize
that it’s dripping from your eye
so you can only see the blood dripping
out of your good eye
so you laugh and laugh and laugh
and can’t stop laughing
so you choke and choke and choke
on the blood that keeps dripping from your eye
and you die on the spot
with the scissors in your eye
and your mouth filled up with blood
but you were happy
for the first time in years
so so happy
based on the irony of what had happened
but you wished that your loved ones
could know that you died so happy
but you knew you weren’t a pretty site
with the scissors in your eye
and your mouth filled up with blood
if only they could know how you felt.
