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.
