A Slap Happy Pappy

Twenty thousand three hundred days That's a humongous amount of days But it's not a family record One sister lived 30,310,10 as of today Guess you could say I'm a contented person With more than my share of happy Why me? I have often asked How come I'm a slap happy pappy Is it just a roll of the dice That determines which path we travel Or at some point do we look at things And say in humour I'd like to dabble Whatever the reason whatever the cause I've ended up sending out sillies Had more than my share of happiness stuff Guess that's why I'm a silly-billy
