Stevie Wonder - Take Up a Course in Happiness Lyrics

When life reaches out and takes you on an unpleasent ride
And your bridge of dreams comes tumblin' down
Don't let your bed of sorrow ever conquer your pride
Remember there's always a way out

Take up a course in happiness, take up a course to clear out your mind
You will show yourself how to smile, yeah
Take up a course in happiness, take up a free instruction in life
You will learn how to smile

And when your optimism has a set back or two
And you feel all your tryin's in vain, your heart's in the rain
Don't give up the hope that's due you just to study your doubt
Remember there's always a way out, hey

Take up a course in happiness, take up a course to clear out your mind
You will show yourself how to smile
Take up a course in happiness, take up a free instruction in life
You will learn how to smile

Take up a course in happiness, take up a course to clear out your mind
Show yourself how to smile
Take up a course in happiness, take up a free instruction in life
You will learn how to smile
