Optimism Is Key-To Heaven On Earth...Not!
I try to keep optimistic
By breaking dishes and filing insurance for new ones
I try to be light-hearted
By laughing at old people...just cause their old
and brittle bones are funny
I try to love by keeping in contact with recently jailed convicts
Hell! they need love to behind steel bars love is jail
I try to be a good daughter by cursing out my mother's good intentions
Keeping optimistic is the key to not driving ones self so crazy...
That even straight jackets start to look chic
So come!... Laugh with me in vanity and disrespect
Imitate the anorexics by waving cheeseburgers
Stall the bulimics by locking them out the bathroom
Watch them digest
Ha HA HA Ha ha ha !!!!!!!!!!!!
