Here's a little song I wrote
You might want sing it note for note
Don't worry, be happy
On ATX, we've had some trouble
But when you flame them, you make it double
Don't worry, be happy

Chorus:
Don't worry, be happy now.
Dododododododododododododo
Don't worry,
Dododododododo
Be happy.
Dododododo
Don't worry, be happy

Dododododododododododododo
Don't worry
Dododododododo
Be happy
Dododododo
Don't worry, be happy.

We got the news that Joxer's old
And married Meg as well, we're told
Don't worry, be happy
Now Xena and Gab are frozen cold
But we all know they won't grow old
Don't worry, be happy.
Look at me, I'm happy.

(Chorus)

Here, I give you my phone number, when you worry, call me. I make you happy.

Ain't got no Jett, ain't got no Jace
Ain't got Joxer to take their place
Don't worry, be happy
'Cause when you worry your face will frown
And that will bring everybody down
Don't worry, be happy.
Don't worry, be happy now.
Don't worry, be happy.

Don't worry. Don't worry. Don't do it.
Be happy. Put a smile on your face.
Don't bring everybody down.
Don't worry. It will soon pass, whatever it is.
Don't worry, be happy.
I'm not worried. I'm happy.
