CMV: The best version of the song is, "If your're happy and you know it and you really want to show it..."

<To be read in a with a tone that is a mix between Seinfeld and Paulie Walnuts from the Sopranos>      


>If you're happy and you know it, ***then your face will surely show it...***

Who thought of this? They are out of their mind and don't know what they're talking about. What's the point of clapping your hands and stomping your feet if you can just let people know you're happy just by looking at your face? It makes the whole song irrelevant. Ridiculous! They may as well sing, "If you're happy and you know it, just smile and then we're done here because everyone knows it <end song>"

>If you're happy and you know it, ***and you really want to show it...***

Now we're talking. This line binds everything together. Being happy, clapping your hands, stomping your feet. It gives me the motivation to do the actions in the song. Why should I clap my hands? Because I want to show you how happy I am. Look  👏 how 👏 happy 👏 I 👏 am!

I dont want to have to whack all these children's singers that are singing the wrong lyrics. Even if they deserve it because they're singing nonsense, it'll just make the kids cry more. CMV.

The "face will surely show it" is only for the first stanza ("smile at me").  When you are clapping your hands, your hands will surely show it.  When you are stomping, your feet will surely show it.  Etc.  One should certainly not repeat the same line stanza after stanza.  That way lies sheer drudgery.

Good luck with your toddler!
