is happiness, happiness, happiness.

The main difference between poetry and lyrics are generally that lyrics focus more on repetition. I'd encourage you to repeat phrases, but the trick of it is not to repeat a line as obvious as this one. Saying it once should have enough impact.
The idea is to take a phrase that isn't exactly obvious--one that sort of reveals itself after the repetition. You do have the freedom to repeat whatever you want, but you have to have the right touch to do so.
