Ren & Stimpy Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hello, boys and girls
This is your old pal stinky wizzleteats
This is a song about a whale
No, this is a song about being happy
That's right, it's the happy, happy, joy, joy, song

Happy, happy, joy, joy
Happy, happy, joy, joy

Happy, happy, joy, joy
Happy, happy, joy, joy
Happy, happy, joy, joy
Happy, happy, joy, joy
Happy, happy, joy, joy, joy

I don't think you're happy enough
That's right, I'll teach you to be happy
I'll teach your grandmother to suck eggs
Now, boys and girls, let's try it again

Happy, happy, joy, joy
Happy, happy, joy, joy
Happy, happy, joy, joy
Happy, happy, joy, joy
Happy, happy, joy, joy
Happy, happy, joy, joy
Happy, happy, joy, joy, joy

If'n you ain't the granddaddy of all liars
Think of the little critters of nature
They don't know that they're ugly
That's very funny, a fly marrying a bumblebee
I told you, 'I'd shoot', but you didn't believe me
Why didn't you believe me?

Happy, happy, joy, joy
Happy, happy, joy, joy
Happy, happy, joy, joy
Happy, happy, joy, joy
Happy, happy, joy, joy

Happy, happy, joy, joy
Happy, happy, joy, joy, joy

Overall Meaning

The Ren & Stimpy Show was known for its off-the-wall humor, and the song "Happy Happy Joy Joy" is no exception. The song begins with an introduction from Stinky Wizzleteats, who claims that the song is about a whale before abruptly correcting himself to say that it's actually about being happy. From there, listeners are bombarded with repeated phrases of "Happy, happy, joy, joy" that are meant to teach them to be happier in their lives.

The lyrics also contain some sarcastic and bizarre lines, such as "I'll teach your grandmother to suck eggs" and "Think of the little critters of nature, they don't know that they're ugly." These kinds of lines fit into the wacky humor that was a hallmark of The Ren & Stimpy Show.

Overall, "Happy Happy Joy Joy" is a catchy, silly tune. However, some viewers and critics have interpreted the song as a commentary on the pressure to be happy all the time, even if it's not realistic or healthy. The song's emphasis on repeating the phrase "happy, happy, joy, joy" over and over again could be seen as a way to force happiness instead of letting it come naturally.

Line by Line Meaning

Hello, boys and girls
Greetings, all listeners

This is your old pal stinky wizzleteats
I am the singer of this song, known as stinky wizzleteats

This is a song about a whale
While the title mentions the ocean mammal known as a whale, the song is truly focused on the concept of happiness

No, this is a song about being happy
Correction, the following song is centered around the idea of joyfulness

That's right, it's the happy, happy, joy, joy, song
Indeed, this is the musical composition featuring the words 'happy, happy, joy, joy'

I don't think you're happy enough
To the listener, it appears that you are not content with your current happiness level

That's right, I'll teach you to be happy
Fortunately, stinky wizzleteats will proceed to instruct you on how to become more joyous

I'll teach your grandmother to suck eggs
I will not hesitate to educate you all on happiness in the most thorough way I can think of

Now, boys and girls, let's try it again
We will try repeating the 'happy, happy, joy, joy' lyrics once more with even more excitement

If'n you ain't the granddaddy of all liars
Without meaning to offend, it seems you are acting insincerely at the moment

Think of the little critters of nature
Allow your mind to contemplate the many small creatures found in nature

They don't know that they're ugly
Despite human judgement, these creatures have no knowledge of their appearance and potential flaws

That's very funny, a fly marrying a bumblebee
The idea of fly and bumblebee union may seem amusing or ridiculous to some

I told you, 'I'd shoot', but you didn't believe me
Previously, I made threats or warnings to the listener, but it seems they did not take me seriously.

Why didn't you believe me?
My potential consequences or advice may not have been respected by you, and I am curious as to why that is.

Happy, happy, joy, joy
Repeating the phrase which represents the overall message of this tune

Happy, happy, joy, joy
Repetition of said phrase

Happy, happy, joy, joy
Repeating once more

Happy, happy, joy, joy
Again

Happy, happy, joy, joy
And again

Happy, happy, joy, joy
Once again, repeating the aforementioned words

Happy, happy, joy, joy, joy
Adding an extra 'joy' to further emphasize the ideas of elation and merriment

I basically took everything in the first 5 seasons as being literal if it wasn't a blatant joke.

Stinky's picture on the record is a caricature of Burl Ives, his voice is a (bad) impersonation of Ives, and the random lines uttered between choruses of "Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy" are extracts from childrens' records he made, Disney documentaries he narrated, and "The Big Country" a Western he had a lead role in.
