Put on a Happy Face

Lyrics
[Spoken Intro: James Darren, Paul Petersen & Shelley Fabares] Hey, pally, watch it Just because your name is Paul Petersen, don't think you can push me around Just because your name is Jimmy Darren, don't think you can stand on my foot! Is that what I was doing? Yeah! Well, I'm terribly sorry Hey, who's that chick over there? Oh, that's Shelley Shelley who? "Johnny Angel, Johnny Angel" Oh, yeah, that Shelley! That's right. Shelley, would you please join us? Hello! Hi, Shell. Well, now that we're all here, what're we gonna do? I think a song seems to be in ordеr Well, what kind of song? How 'bout a happy song? Okay! Shelley, carе to join us? No, I think I'll just listen for a while Well, are you ready, Paul? Ready as I'll ever be Grab a note. I got one! Hold on tight [Verse 1: James Darren and Paul Petersen, James Darren & Paul Petersen] Gray skies are gonna clear up Put on a happy face Brush off the clouds and cheer up Put on a happy face Take off that gloomy mask of tragedy It's not your style You'll look so good that you'll be glad You decided to smile, yeah Pick out a pleasant outlook And stick out that noble chin (Oh, Dean, you're beautiful) Wipe off that full-of-doubt look And slap on a happy grin (Shall we waltz?) [Chorus: James Darren and Paul Petersen] Spread sunshine all over the place Just put on a happy face [Spoken Interlude: James Darren, Paul Petersen & Shelley Fabares] My dearest Shelley Would you care to step forward and put on one of your happier faces? But it's not my key, Jimmy Aw, that's easily remedied. Maestro, a new key for the lady [Verse 2: Shelley Fabares, James Darren & Paul Petersen] Why look so awfully tragic? Put on a happy face (Look at me, I'm happy!) Smiling can work like magic Put on a happy face (Here come the funny lines) Why do you mope around so sourly? It's such a strain Now, um, my brother, Bob He thinks that the, uh, fifty mile hikes are a strain I always try to chuckle hourly It clears my brain So, uh, shall we continue on our merry way? Indubitably! Now, pick out a pleasant outlook And stick out that noble nose Watch this, Tony Bennett Wipe off that full-of-doubt look And flap on a happy grin, yeah [Chorus: Shelley Fabares, James Darren and Paul Petersen] All together, now Spread sunshine all over the place [Post-Chorus: Shelley Fabares, James Darren & Paul Petersen] Just put on a hap-a-hap-a-happy... Paint on a hap-hap-happy... Slap on a hap-hap-happy... [Outro: Shelley Fabares, James Darren and Paul Petersen] Face
