Happy Home Lyrics

[Chorus]
How could we wreck this happy home?
How could we wreck this happy home?

[Verse 1]
Before everything fell to pieces
We was on some you and me shit
We was on some Bonnie and Clyde shit
Ended up Jekyll and Hyde shit
You got me going through a mid-life crisis
Even before I even hit my mid-life crisis
I never thought that we would end up like this
A fairy-tale gone wrong

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh, how could we? How could we?
How could we stray so far?
How could we? How could we?

[Chorus]
How could we wreck this happy home? (Oh)
How could we wreck this happy home? (Oh)
How did we end up all alone? (Oh)
How could we wreck this happy home? (Oh)

[Verse 2]
Before everything got so psycho
We was on some Pippen and Michael
I told you, "Wherever you go, I go"
We turn up, watching everything spiral
Now I wonder, "How'd it get so ugly?"
That anyone could ever get so ugly
I can't believe you made me call the police
Where did we go wrong?
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh, how could we? How could we?
How could we stray so far?
How could we? How could we?

[Chorus]
How could we wreck this happy home? (Oh)
How could we wreck this happy home? (Oh)
How did we end up all alone? (Oh)
How could we wreck this happy home? (Oh)
How could we wreck this happy home?

[Bridge]
Don't let this slip away
Don't let this slip away
Don't let this slip away

[Chorus]
How could we wreck this happy home? (Oh)
How could we wreck this happy home? (Oh)
How did we end up all alone? (Oh)
How could we wreck this happy home? (Oh, ayy, ayy)
How could we wreck this happy home? (Oh)

[Outro]
Before everything fell to pieces, oh
(How could we wreck this happy home?)
How could we let this be?
(How did we end up all alone?)
I did my best to keep this house a home
(How could we wreck this happy home?)
[?] [3:10]
(How could we wreck this happy home?)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
