Lyrics

[Verse 1] We are down, we are crazy fools Everyday at school Teachers here, teachers there [Chorus] Books and books, they are everywhere Come on boys, we need to dance We have a good chance Lay your problems on the floor Clap your hands, sing with me once more Everybody, let's go to the "King" We can dance there, dance and eat an ice-cream Everybody dancing all night long Try to do it, sing a happy song [Verse 2] Music, sound, dancing in the night We can get so high For no reason no! Don't stop Now's the time, let's go to the top It's a sweet simple happy song We'll sing all night long Lay your problems on the floor Clap your hands, sing with me once more The time is right to dance it's time to sing, sing a happy song (Sing a happy song) Let's go, let's go boys, come with me and sing (Sing a happy song, a song) Let's go, let's go boys, come with me and sing We are down, we are crazy fools everyday at school Teachers here, teachers there [Chorus] Books and books, they are everywhere Come on boys, we need to dance We have a good chance Lay your problems on the floor Clap your hands, sing with me once more Everybody, let's go to the "King" We can dance there, dance and eat an ice-cream Everybody dancing all night long Try to do it, sing a happy song [Outro] (Sing a happy song) (Sing a happy song, a song)
