Laugh Out Loud

When your back it has an itch
   and it's oh just out of reach.
And you sprain a muscle reaching.
Laugh out loud.

When you're dressing to the nines,
   and your shirt's pressed just so fine.
Then discover buttons missing.
Laugh out loud.

Find the toilet in the dark,
   begin to sit before you start.
But the toilet seat is up!
Laugh out loud.

Laugh at yourself each time
   that you can't quite find the rhyme.
'Cause life can be a rhyme-less poem.
Laugh out loud.

The louder it can be
   the better you will see.
That others join you in the fun, so
Laugh out loud.
