Surrender to the euphoric ache of “Happy,” a shimmering pop confessional from Doja Cat‘s fifth studio album Vie, exploding onto the scene today, September 26, 2025, via Kemosabe and RCA Records—her triumphant pivot back to glittery romance after Scarlet’s raw rap edge. Amala Ratna Zandile Dlamini aka, Doja Cat, the LA-born shapeshifter who’s dominated from TikTok virality with “Mooo!” to Grammy gold on Hot Pink, infuses this track with her signature multilingual mischief: English pleas for joy amid heartbreak laced with haunting French refrains like “Brise mon cœur encore ce soir” (Break my heart again tonight). Co-produced with Kurtis McKenzie, Ambezza, and Scribz Riley, “Happy” pulses with ’80s synth waves and retro textures, echoing the nostalgic drive of lead single “Jealous Type” while dissecting love’s messy highs—lines like “Are you happy? Who would get mad at you doing what you wanna do?” mask jealousy with faux nonchalance, a nod to Doja’s own post-breakup candor in V Magazine chats about embracing pop’s “popular” pull.
At the heart of Vie’s 15-track odyssey of intimacy and intrigue—sans features, like Scarlet’s bold solo stance—”Happy” threads the emotional chaos of “Gorgeous” (its sultry self-love anthem) and “Cards” (a playful poker-faced take on trust), amplifying the project’s French-kissed motifs of “love, life, and the mess in between,” as Doja teased to Zane Lowe. Fans who’ve looped Planet Her’s cosmic bops or vibed to the Vie Hotline’s flirty prompts will adore this cut’s danceable despair, where vulnerability meets viral hooks. Dive into the Happy lyrics below and chase its twisted bliss. Don’t miss other Vie tracks like “Jealous Type” for more of her pop-fueled heartbreak high.

If I Knew Just What You Wanted
Would It Stop You? Would It Change Me?
Does The Key Go To Your Locket?
Is It Natural? Is It Crazy?
I Found You In The Westin
With A Statue Of A Lady
She Looked Just Like A Best Friend
Was It Friendship You Were Chasing?

Are You Happy?
Who Would Get Mad At You
Doing What You Wanna Do?
Then Be Happy
I Just Couldn’t Get Mad At You
Whoever You’re Callin “Boo”
As Long As You’re Happy Too

It’s Sweet
Dancing With You In The Nude Is My Niche
Tell Me You Don’t Tell Her What You Told Me
Can’t Be Right The Way I’m Grittin’ My Teeth
Got Me Sittin’ At Home Waiting To Hear The Phone Ring
We Got Roots And Baby They Could Run Deep
But You Cutting Me Off I Feel Like Ripping This Tree
Hittin’ A Wall I Fell A Hundred Feet Deep
All The Bitches Involved Should Know That Pimpin’ Ain’t Cheap
