You want to know a secret
That I will like to admit
But at the same time
Don't want to?
Well here it goes
You know,
Smiling people are courageous
Oh, you didn't hear me
I said
Smiling people is an inspiration
Wait
One more time
Fine
Smiling people are contagious
They spread like a wildfire
Ready to latch on
And kill all the dead leaves
Smiling people has this tendency of becoming infectious
Spreading like a disease
You want to not give in to the sickness
The disease smiling people give
You want to live your life just the way it is
But smiling people will never allow you to
For they will latch on—
Latch on
Causing you to break
The sadness that you convey
Get moved up a notch or two
It's really annoying when they smile
Because
Smiling people are contagious
They are an inspiration
And they are very courageous
Especially if they can get you to smile,
which is a very hard thing to do.
