When people put you down
It's 'cause they're jealous of you
They shouldn't make you frown
You know as well as I do
It's 'cause I love you
For the things you do for me
One day they'll realize
And wish that they were me
One thing I know for sure
We both get satisfaction
That's why they're mad at us
'Cause they ain't got what we got
It's 'cause I'm happy
For the things you do for me
One day they'll realize
And wish that they were me
Don't even think about changing
You got a life of your own
Don't even think about changing
You got a life of your own
Why don't they understand
Our feelings are sincere
One day they'll be surprised
Because we are so near
To all the things they tried
To be when they were young
That's why they don't agree
And take it out on us
It's 'cause I'm happy
For the things you do for me
One day they'll realize
And wish that they were me
It's 'cause I'm happy
For the things you do for me
