[Intro]
Haha
Du-na-na-na, ah-na-na-na-na, ah, da
Du-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na, da, da
Du-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na, na, na
[Verse 1]
Lately, it's been a little bit wild
I wake up wearing this disgusting smile
It’s like I hear a parade outside my window
Every day down my street when it used to be a shit show
Du-na-na-na, ah-na-na-na-na, ah, da
Du-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na
[Pre-Chorus]
Where all the dark clouds go?
Silver linings of pure gold
Overnight this angel found her halo
[Chorus]
I don't really feel bad news anymore
Walking through walls like an open door, woah
I'm shutting down the negativity
I’ll find the optimist in me, ooh
[Post-Chorus]
And so good ain't so bad
I'm giving in to love, I'm sick of being sad
Ooh, ooh, I could be happy
I could be happy all the time
Du-na-na-na, ah-na-na-na-na, ah, da
Du-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na
[Verse 2]
I wanna drive down main with a megaphone
Shouting, "Love's gonna save the day" of the top of my lungs
[Pre-Chorus]
Where all the dark clouds go?
Silver linings of pure gold
Overnight this angel found her halo
[Chorus]
I don't really feel bad news anymore
Walking through walls like an open door, woah
I'm shutting down the negativity
I'll find the optimist in me, ooh
[Post-Chorus]
And so good ain’t so bad
I’m giving in to love, I'm sick of being sad
Ooh, ooh, I could be happy
I could be happy all the time
[Bridge]
Where all the dark clouds go?
Silver linings of pure gold
Overnight this angel found her halo
[Chorus]
I don’t really feel bad news anymore
Walking through walls like an open door, woah
I'm shutting down the negativity
I'll find the optimist in me, ooh
[Outro]
And so good ain't so bad
I’m giving in to love, I'm sick of being sad
Ooh, ooh, I could be happy
I could be happy all the time
