Weezer - Happy Hour Lyrics






I'm like Stevie Ray Vaughan on the stage, high on music
Teeth grindin', sweatin' under the lights
But then my boss calls and she's crushin' me with a 20 ton weight
Just like in Monty Python
Somebody left on the sink, it's still running
My eyes are gonna overflow

I need a happy hour on sad days (sad days)
I need a happy hour, I can't wait (can't wait)

I'm like Ponce de Leon setting on a ship for the new world
Checking out the birds and flowers
Let's chill out on this island, I've been
Sucking on a lime and coconut, coconut
I think I could stay here for the rest of my life
Please, don't ever make me go home

I need a happy hour on sad days (sad days)
It's my happy hour, I can't wait (can't wait)

Maybe I'll meet a scientist in sweatpants and a hair tie
We'll conversate about rare birds and MIDI keyboards
And we'll slow dance, head on my shoulder
Swing back and forth and my friends are gonna smile
Everything's gonna be alright

It's my happy hour on sad days (sad days)
I need a happy hour, I can't wait (can't wait)
I need a happy hour, to save me
Maybe I'll meet a scientist in sweatpants and a hair tie
We'll conversate about rare birds and MIDI keyboards
And we'll slow dance
I need a happy hour, I can't wait (can't wait)

Weezer Happy Hour Comments
  1. R.... S....

    I'm Sad..

    It'll be okay

  2. P.... P....

    Came here from a CBS promo of 'The Neighborhood' and 'Bob ❤ Abishola.'

    Absolutely floored to find out it's Weezer! Wow, way to keep it fresh, guys!!! 🔥🔥🔥 Love it!

  3. J.... T....

    This sound is Weezer because it’s Weezer playing the sounds.

    =w=

  4. w.... d....

    Just discovered this song the other day and am blown away! Didn't think Weezer sounded like this.

  5. D.... B....

    I actually love pacific daydream

  6. M.... I....

    Spending my first hour of 2020 listening to this Gem

    M.... I....

    Maria Ingram nice

  7. N.... P....

    I love this song so fucking much

  8. F.... ....

    Love this 🍻

  9. E.... B....

    Am I not supposed to be laughing?

  10. k.... K....

    Hey little baby - dope lemon song listened to after or b4

  11. s.... ....

    I couldn't believe this was Weezer. I think it's an excellent track.

  12. S.... ....

    Punk version if you listen on X2

  13. L.... F....

    éxito total!!

  14. g.... ....

    The lead singer was talking about the song's creation and said he used "free association" (when someone says "tell me the first thing that comes to your mind" ). So the lyrics are a little odd, but it's still a good song. Also, the lyrics about a woman he met are real life experiences he had.

  15. d.... ....

    Does this sound a little like Foster the People to anyone?

  16. V.... ....

    🎿❤❤❤❤❤

  17. b.... i....

    I'm at work... Listening to this song.. I need happy hour

  18. -.... m....

    Screw you guys, this album is awesome.

  19. B.... C....

    This song elevates my mood and puts a smile on my face. Love it!

  20. U.... 1....

    Nice tune 😎🎸

  21. K.... D....

    yang dengerin dari Indonesia koment ya..

  22. A.... P....

    My happy hour is pissing off liberals.

  23. T.... S....

    I want to cry when I hear this song, like someone is desperately reaching for happiness. I'm sorry dude I hope you get happiness on sad days.

  24. T.... E....

    Does anyone else get feels for Bentley from slycooper from this song

  25. A.... R....

    This song genuinely reminds of when I used to live in Los Angeles, homeless, and had to beg people for money just to eat. My version of a happy hour was when somebody would finally drop a couple of cents. They were very sad times.

  26. p.... t....

    The one weezer song i always enjoy

  27. -.... m....

    I don’t even really care if Weezer’s been making poppier music these past couple years. If I’m going to listen to mainstream-sounding pop, I’d rather hear it from Weezer than some other shitty artist who’s already on the radio 24/7.

  28. G.... C....

    I want to use this in a video!

  29. n.... ....

    Weezer went from rock (Blue Album - Make Believe) to electro-pop (Raditude and Hurley) to rock and sorry for making electro-pop (EWBAITE) to even more electro-poppy songs (White Album to Black Album)

    Good job Weezer 😐👏

  30. a.... m....

    [Verse 1]
I'm like Stevie Ray Vaughan on the stage, high on music
Teeth grindin', sweatin' under the lights
But then my boss comes
And she's crushin' me with a 20-ton weight
Just like in Monty Python
Somebody left on the sink, it's still running
My eyes are gonna overflow

[Chorus]
I need happy hour on sad days (on sad days)
I need happy hour, I can't wait (can't wait)

[Verse 2]
I'm like Ponce de Leon
Setting on a ship for the new world
Checking out the birds and flowers
Let's chill out on this island, I've been
Sucking on a lime and coconut (coconut)
Coconut (coconut)
I think I could stay here for the rest of my life
Please, don't ever make me go home

[Chorus]
I need happy hour on sad days (on sad days)
It's my happy hour, I can't wait (can't wait)

[Bridge]
Maybe I'll meet a scientist in sweatpants and a hair tie
We'll conversate about rare birds and MIDI keyboards
And we'll slow dance, head on my shoulder
Swayin' back and forth and
My friends look on and smile
Everything's gonna be alright

[Chorus]
It's my happy hour on sad days (on sad days)
I need happy hour, I can't wait (can't wait)
I need happy hour, to save me
Maybe I'll meet a scientist in sweatpants and a hair tie
We'll conversate about rare birds and MIDI keyboards
And we'll slow dance
I need a happy hour, I can't wait (can't wait)

  31. J.... D....

  50. M.... N....

    Definitely a vibe

  51. A.... P....

    happy hourrrr

  52. L.... M....

    I thought this was going to be a cover of The Housemartins Happy Hour. Not what I expected, but not disappointed: )

  53. D.... &....

    I DID see lots of birds when I used to go to Happy Hour, just saying..... Too bad it was banned before the 80's ended though.

  54. L.... C....

    I'm a big Eminem fan and he is getting the same backlash of his fans for changing his sound and content. they evolve in music

  55. O.... F....

    Happy week, y'all.
    #OdedFriedGaon #OdedMusic #Audioded

  56. H.... C....

    Just know that project was landed me as one of Weezer’s newest fans!!!

  57. r.... l....

    I really like this. It’s chill, and its groovy, and its old and fresh at the same time. So cool.

  58. A.... B....

    Monty python uses a 16 ton weight, not 20

  59. W.... g....

    I used to take my laptop outside in the bright, summer sunlight and do my study courses while blaring this into my earbuds. Wow. Gives me warm fuzzy feeling

  60. N.... C....

    This song is one of the few times Rivers experimenting with new genres has actually paid off.

  61. T.... P....

    This is my jam.

  62. B.... O....

    This would be awesome in VR

  63. O.... R....

    Coconut

  64. E.... 1....

    I feel like this song has a deeper meaning to it and only those who are going through similar events due to their choice of substance they're abuseing can understand that this is revirs screaming for help from himself cuz hes in to deep and a bit to comfortable to turn away on his own, slowly killing his emotions digging deeper into (sadness)

  65. A.... R....

    This should be credited to Rivers Cuomo cause I don't hear the rest of the band on it anywhere.

  66. A.... P....

    This song is the best song they've done in years.

  67. P.... W....

    *It say Weezer. I come for Weezer. I find Post Malone? I gives up.*

  68. C.... ....

    "Well conversate about big birds and parakeet birds"

  69. M.... S....

    Eu fico em transe ouvindo essa música

  70. A.... B....

    Coconuuuuut! Coconuuuuuuuuuuut!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂

  71. C.... S....

    Sorry guys, you’re gonna have to learn to accept Weezer as pop. Once you do, you can admit that this a pretty awesome song. Still not Feels Like Summer, though.

  72. H.... M....

    I went to one of your concerts with the wombats and the pixies

  73. J.... L....

    The best of your funkiest stuff, I can get behind this.

  74. A.... T....

    Sooooo good!

  75. E.... G....

    This song makes myself want to party till the beautiful morning light

  76. j.... k....

    Love the song and the art piece.

  77. b.... ....

    I couldn't have found this song at a better time

  78. x.... ....

    What a great song. Gotta stop for a second and enjoy this moment.

  79. K.... ....

    cant stop singing this

  80. R.... G....

    God has truly greater things in store for you in Jesus Christ name!!!

  81. F.... D....

    What are people complaining for? They don't sound like they used too but I think this is possibly one of their best songs

  82. B.... ....

    I think you'll find that in monty python they used a 16 ton weight :P

  83. 1.... T....

    This one made me watch 'Happy Hour' by the Housemartins

  84. R.... C....

    *September 2018?*

  85. I.... ....

    The only thing I like about this song is the "on sad days" and then the sort of vocal solo rivers does later

  86. p.... ....

    This song will always have a place in my heart. I was listening to Pacific Daydream in the car on my way to the airport to meet a friend when I got the phone call telling me my father had lost his battle with cancer. I don't remember much about that drive but I do remember this song coming on and bringing a smile to my face. Thank you Weezer. Somehow, some way you had the song I needed at that very moment.

  87. J.... D....

    Fucken love this song on sad days lol

  88. \.... U....

    I hope the Black Album sounds like Slipknot or something, that would make up for this. I like this though

  89. K.... S....

    We could all use more Happy Hour love it way to go Weezer!

  90. e.... ....

    This is a great groove 👍🏻 I immediately enjoyed it

  91. X.... C....

    This album is the best album to listen to when you're just chilling. I can't tell you how many times I've caught myself bobbing my head with these songs and humming them in class. I don't care about Jean Piaget's contribution to psychology, I care about learning the lyrics to this.

  92. M.... R....

    People just want honesty in the art they consume. And when an artist stops being honest then it’s not art anymore. I like Weezer/Rivers’ songs because I feel connected to the human follies that Rivers sings about so I’ll apply it to my own life for reflection. I’ll be honest, this song is catchy. Rivers is a really talented songwriter. But this is not art. This is a grab for a top 40 spot. This is playing it safe. This is meant to be emotionally ubiquitous so that everyone can enjoy it casually and not passionately. I’m not mad or trying to attack this song. I’m just defining what it’s intentions are. And I’m not even saying its a bad thing. Radio hits serve the purpose of being fun, light, and easy to digest. I don’t think it’s necessarily fair for fans to be “mad” at Rivers, considering he doesn’t owe anyone anything and is free to lead his life whatever way he wants. But I’d be lying if I didn’t say I was personally disappointed with this album when I consider what I’ve come to expect from Rivers and the Weezers and know what they’re capable of. It’s not bad, it’s just not art.

  93. D.... ....
