(Verse)
Every little star I see in the sky 
I know that it's my destiny, destiny 
Most days I wake with a smile on my face 
Cause I know i'm living in a state of grace 
Destiny, destiny 
(Chorus)
Would you rather be happy or be right? Uh-huh 
Then I'm telling you darling 
It's gonna be a long long night 
(Verse)
Every morning I make up my bed, fluff up my pillows 
I fluff up my head, destiny, destiny 
When I contemplate the grand design 
That's when I start to fuck up my mind 
Destiny, destiny 
(Chorus)
Would you rather be happy or be right? Uh-huh 
Then I'm telling you darling 
It's gonna be a long long night 
Hey hey hey - hey hey hey 
(Verse)
I'm looking for relief as I sit on this fence
Cause I'm at an age where it doesn't makes sense 
Destiny, oh destiny 
As a young man I dreamed of fortune and fame 
I know the answer is hard to explain 
Destiny, destiny 
(Chorus)
Would you rather be happy or be right? Uh-huh 
Then I'm telling you darling 
It's gonna be a long long night
