Living Out Loud and Proud

They lived out loud and proud and dazzled the neighbors But only the ones who were paying attention Which was not many actually They laughed so strong and long that others rolled their eyes The jealous ones, the ones who had no friends to laugh with You know who they are They drank like sailors, until their health gave out But they were in their hundreds by then Because living loud and proud spells a long life It annoys the ones who do not know how to be raunchy and rude and crude and loud and lewd and dress snappily and happily You can look in the mirror and will know if you fit in or not Wait! It is not too late. It is never too late.
