Laughter As a Life Force

Inside the heartache lives a clown
To keep this life from falling down

In pains of darkness I'll survive
With laughter I can feel alive

Yes,I'm the jokester,big and loud
That's how I stand out from the crowd

Don't sweat the small stuff,I'll agree
Refuse to let things get to me

If you're in need of lifting up
Then drink here from my loving cup

I'll make you giggle,laugh and moan
Till you don't feel so all alone

Let's share some fun and chuckles too
Sometimes that's all that you can do
