Pursuit of Happiness

When you're having fun,
And the world's having fun with you,
And you have no worry in the world,
And you have your health, too,

Make sure you find something to bring you down,
Because, god forbid, your happiness lasts,
'Cause if it does people will beat you down,
And the world will turn on you fast,

Not because you don't deserve what you have,
But because no one else does,
Because if they had it it would not be,
To them advantageous.

And it's alright,
If you want to be happy on the sly.
That's probably the best way of having your cake,
And eating it before you die.
