Everyone has unhappiness A paroxysm of distress Humans want to cover their unhappiness Beyond joviality Beyond laughter Beyond music Behind the roistering jubilation We suppress our sadness Underneath our liveliness we're stoic Our hearts don't love sadnesses We try to laugh now and again We ought to laugh for living We ought to live for laughing

Behind the Merriment
Everyone has unhappiness A paroxysm of distress Humans want to cover their unhappiness Beyond joviality Beyond laughter Beyond music Behind the roistering jubilation We suppress our sadness Underneath our liveliness we're stoic Our hearts don't love sadnesses We try to laugh now and again We ought to laugh for living We ought to live for laughing
