"Happy & Healthy"

by Divinity Roxx

English

CHORUS
If you’re happy and you’re healthy, clap your hands, clap your hands
If you’re feeling really strong, do a dance, do a dance
You can twist your hips
Raise your hands, raise your hands
And turn all around and around and around

VERSE 1
I’m happy and healthy, I know it, I know it
I can put my hands in the air and show it, I show it
I’m healthy, I’m strong
I got it goin’ on
I love to run and play and jump
It keeps my body strong
And I love to eat my veggies
My favorite are the peas and the beans and the carrots, even love my broccoli
And I always say please every night I brush my teeth
And I always wash my hands before I eat...see!

VERSE 2
I like fresh air and sunshine, I love to play outside
And I drink plenty of water, we need water to survive
And my body feels good when I take the best care
It’s ok to have a snack, how about an apple or a pear?
And I love to eat my fruit because its juicy and its sweet
And that makes me really happy from my head to my feet
I can touch my head, shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes
’Cuz I’m healthy and I’m strong, and now everybody knows

CHORUS
If you’re happy and you’re healthy, clap your hands, clap your hands
If you’re feeling really strong, do a dance, do a dance
You can twist your hips
Raise your hands. Raise your hands
And turn all around and around and around

BRIDGE
Everybody freeze
Just freeze
Now touch your knees
Now stand up big and tall like the tallest tree
And turn all around and around and around

Español

CORO
Si eres feliz y saludable, hay que aplaudir, hay que aplaudir.
Si te sientes realmente fuerte, hay que bailar, hay que bailar.
Puedes mover la cadera y las manos estirar,
voltear y voltear, y voltear alrededor.

VERSO 1
Soy feliz y saludable, yo lo sé, yo lo sé.
Puedo poner las manos en el aire, lo muestro, lo muestro.
Soy saludable, soy fuerte,
y así lo seré.
Me encanta correr, jugar y brincar
y mi cuerpo fuerte mantener.
Y adoro comer mis verduras,
mis favoritos son los chícharos y los frijoles y las zanahorias y además el brócoli.
Y siempre doy las gracias cuando me cepillo los dientes en las noches
y siempre me lavo las manos antes de comer. ¡Ves!

VERSO 2
Me gusta el aire fresco, el sol y adoro al aire libre jugar
y tomo mucha agua porque la necesitamos para vivir,
mi cuerpo se siente bien cuando lo cuido mejor.
¿Qué tal una pera o una manzana para merendar?,
me encanta mi fruta jugosa y comer con dulzor,
eso me vuelve muy feliz de mi cabeza a mis pies.
Puedo tocar mi cabeza, hombros, rodillas y pies, rodillas y pies,
porque soy fuerte y saludable
y lo sabe todo el mundo.

INTERLUDIO
Y ahora a congelar,
ahora las rodillas a tocar,
ahora a pararse grande y alto como el árbol más alto que quiero alcanzar,
voltear y voltear, y voltear alrededor

Inspirational and genuine, Divinity Roxx has earned the reputation of irrefutable front woman of her own genre-bursting and compelling musical journey.

Her career as a bass player skyrocketed after attending a bass camp led by the legendary Victor Wooten, where she was invited to tour with him three months after the camp.

After touring with Victor for five years, she became the bass player and assistant musical director for Beyoncé. She was given a featured solo by the artist on The Beyoncé Experience and I Am… Sasha Fierce tours and DVDs. She also composed original music for the I Am… Sasha Fierce tour and DVD.

Divinity has appeared on countless television shows, including the Grammys, Saturday Night Live, Good Morning America, The Arsenio Hall Show, Ellen, and The American Music Awards, with personal highlights including a special performance at the White House and an appearance on the hit TV show Soul Man. She is the current bass player in the Black Girls Rock Orchestra, which airs on BET, and is the touring bassist and Musical Director for the powerhouse singer and performer Fantasia.

Despite her appearances with so many legendary and iconic figures, it is in her solo performance that Divinity shines brightest. She combines virtuosic bass playing with an eclectic mashup of hip-hop, rock, and funk that she calls “Alternative Soul.” Her passion for composition, combined with her lyrical prowess and electrifying stage presence, captivates audiences worldwide.

Her 2016 release ImPossible received critical acclaim and earned her an Independent Music Award for Best Spoken Word Album, further highlighting the depth of her lyrical aptitude. The album features the Keith Harris- produced song “We Are,” inspired by her former poetry professor, the late, great June Jordan. The album also features an appearance by her mentor and five-time Grammy-Award-winning artist Victor Wooten.

She is currently performing, teaching, and writing multiple projects, including a new album, a stage play, and a series of children’s books and music.
