Flash Comic Version
http://www.verylowsodium.com/fanimutation/exuberance.php
Yatta!, literally translated means "I/We did it!", figuratively "Yeah"
or "All right!"
"Yatta!" is more or less the work of a comedy duo called
"Ucchan-Nanchan" (after the two guys' names: Uchimura and Nanbara).
The have a tv show that's sort of half variety-show, half sketch
comedy, and "Yatta" started out as a sketch on that show. The sketch
was about a mythical music group called "Happa-tai" (Leaf Squad) where
all the members wear only a leaf and sing this happy song called
"Yatta!"
The guys in the group are Ucchan and Nanchan and the cast of their
show (a comedy trio called Neptune). Ucchan-Nanchan kept reviving this
sketch in different ways, as sketch comedy shows so often do, and
eventually got to the point where they made a music video and would
occasionally appear on other shows as the Happa-tai.

English Lyrics:

"G" "R" double"E" "N" "LEAVES"
"G" "R" double"E" "N" "LEAVES"
It's so easy Happy go lucky
We are the world We did it
Hurray, Hurray, I passed the exam, I became a company president
All I need is one single leaf, I am lucky to be alive
Hurray, Hurray, I'll be the successful candidate, I will be the
representative of Japan
I am sick of being too healthy, Everybody say "Yatta!"
Japan is full of people, (but) tomorrow's gonna be wonderful
Even if I'm bullied, I go to bed and I sleep ZZZZ...
(Good Morning!)
Hurray, Hurray, 9 hours sleep, Jump up out of bed,
I wonder what good things will happen today, I'm lucky to find myself
alive
Hurray, Hurray, If you can change, the world will change too
I'm invincible because there's nothing I can lose, stand up straight
and I feel so great,
(interlude)
The water tastes so great (Yatta!)
The sunshine is so warm (Yatta!)
Laughing out load and I fell so good (Yatta!)
I bought a dog for pet and it's so cute (Yatta!)
It's so easy Happy go lucky?@
We are the world We did it
I passed her on the street and she smiled at me,
maybe the last time we meet but I'm lucky to know you.
The Japan economy is in recession,
Huge disbelif in politicians,
I only wish if we could press the "reset button"
But I'm happy to have you all around me
Hurray, Hurray, a college professor, a movie star
Just you put on one single leaf, and we'll all be one and feel happy
Hurray, Hurray, I can breathe in, I can breathe out,
Heck I'm so healthy, Everybody say "Yatta!"
"G" "R" double"E" "N" "LEAVES"
"G" "R" double"E" "N" "LEAVES"
Bye-Q
