A New Disease That Will Please

There's a sickness that is spreading
Take cover cause it is heading
Toward you in a sweeping motion
Causing a big huge commotion
Confusing all of human kind
Turning wheels in their mind
Because they have never known
What this new action has shown
It is easy and not hard
So please just let down your guard
And follow what I have to say
It can be done every day
Let a happy smile through
To someone who might be blue
Lend an ear to someone that
Might just want to chew the fat
Extend a hand so someone can
Get back on their feet again
Shoulders are a resting place
For a crying and sad face
It is free to show someone
That you care It can be done
Morning, afternoon and night
Go ahead, turn on the light
To others so it can spark
Someones way out of the dark
