The State of Happiness
A state you must not enter with hopes of staying
A place for the fools and the rich
When you’re there you’re hardly praying
Not for the poor that live in a ditch
Enjoy your time there that’s all I’m saying
A good idea, one worth a pitch
In this state you may end up straying
When you leave the heart needs a stitch
They think it’s a joke but I’m not playing
It’s not hard to tell which is which
It can cause stress so don’t mind graying
Not always pure, there may be a glitch
Keep your spirits high and don’t start fraying
It will make you feel wonderful and want to hitch
Wear your heart on your sleeve, it’s called displaying
When things start to fail it’s time to switch
