Cloudy days are a real test
They can drag our spirits down
But I'm usually up for the challenge
In my role as the village clown
My goal is to bring a great big smile
To a bunch of faces each day
What better way to spend my energy
Than to chase all the blues away
If we could all get with the program
What a happy place this could be
Instead of a bunch of sour pusses
We would climb the happiness tree
Not saying I have all the answers
We've got lots of problems on earth
Hope we're headed in the right direction
Let's celebrate the world's rebirth
Cloudy days are a real test
They can drag our spirits down
But this guy won't let the blues inside
You won't catch me wearing a frown

It pusses like tar out of sponge
To this given a chance, grips hold
Yet choices to this I made to give in
Addiction... Yes I’m addicted
Smoking now that it is not
its lure is more... Its lure is lust
Drawing me in... Closer and closer
Unsuspecting gripping me and strangling
Strangled in chains as if helpless in a net
this is me, crying and praying that for once
Yes for once that this lets me go
That to be able to live freely
I want to, I can’t let it go but I want to
I need help... I need... help...

Crazy is as crazy does. I guess you get my drift. I wander through a world of
thought, my pace is not too swift. I like soup and poetry too, If you're reading this,
you do too. I feel only fulfilled if I can create one smile, somewher upon this
earth. sour pusses we know, we suffer from no dearth. I may not be a great
speller, and I may not be too bright, but one thing I know; how to use my sight. I
mean not eyes in this, I hope you understand, I'm just one little member in an
awesome big ol' band. There are things about I wonder, there are things that I
adore, I better shut up now, you unederstand, I can not say more.
