cecily strong & adam sandler – happy lyrics

[ms. malkin, spoken]
i put my whole life into teaching
just to be a mere substitute
(sung)
happy? you want me to be happy?
i never got my own class
never even got to try
never got respect
never got to hunt a fly
just signs on my back
thumbtacks on my chair
spitb+lls, fireb+lls, gum
and milk duds in my underwear
(spoken)
and here i am, after forty+five years
no respect, no steady work, and no family
(sung)
you want me to be happy?

[leo, spoken]
look, i also had dreams that never happened
like seeing the everglades or spreading salmonella
but this year, i fell into something even better
i really cl!cked with these kids

[ms. malkin, spoken]
oh, maybe it helped just a little
that you’re a talking animal
[leo, spoken]
yeah, but also maybe it’s you
because i’ve seen some subs come through the school that kids love
(sung)
what about ms. knight?

[ms. malkin]
nice to the kids, didn’t smell quite right

[leo]
remember mr. munk?

[ms. malkin]
he was a closet drunk

[leo]
everyone loved mr. garrett

[ms. malkin]
he was disturbingly close to his parrot

[leo]
this may have been before your time
miss loge?

[ms. malkin, spoken]
a fine teacher
(sung)
she was mine
[leo, spoken]
you were a student here?

[ms. malkin, spoken]
you don’t remember me?
i was a lot different
i was
(sung)
happy

[leo, spoken]
oh wow, yeah, you were very sweet

[ms. malkin, spoken]
i was adorable
and she—

[leo]
she made you
happy

[ms. malkin, spoken]
yes, she did, she made me feel like i could do anything

[leo, spoken]
and, tell me, do you think she was
(sung)
happy?
(spoken)
she made you her family
that’s what great teachers do, even substitutes
with the little time they have, they try to make a difference
and that’s what keeps them happy
(sung)
you can feel love, it’s not the end
that smile you had can come back again
just pull that stick out your tush and take a cue
from teachers that preceded you
you’re not alone, make a home for them
and embrace your important role
[ms. malkin & leo, ms. malkin]
in shaping them
body and soul (hehehe, hoo+hoo)
and you’ll be happy (and i’ll be happy)
