LYRICS:
Everybody’s happy to see you here
Everybody’s happy to see you there
Everybody, everybody, everybody, everywhere

Is it because of your heart
Is it because of your brain
Is it because of your smile
Is it because of your oooh oooh

Like the sun is big
And so is the shine
And even bigger than the sunshine
Yeah even bigger than the sunshine

Oh, oh, oh sometimes the parts are greater than the whole
Oh, oh , oh sometimes the parts are bigger than the whole
Oh oh oh just like your heart is bigger than you
just like your heart is bigger than youoooooooooouuuuuu

Is it because of your might
Is it because of your mind
Is it because of your fight
Is it because of your oooh oooh

Like you got life
And you got style
You gotta a little
And you got a whole lotta, whole lotta, whole lotta
Chorus
Everybody’s happy to see you here
Everybody’s happy to see you there
Everybody, everybody, everybody, everywhere
