"My life has been one big joke, a dance that's walked, a song that's spoke, I laugh so hard I almost choke when I think about myself" Maya Angelou

Sometimes you look like you want to strangle a teddy bear and shove it down the throat of the world
And hang us all from tree branches
Listen to us choke

Stand alone

Sometimes you look like you want to wrap everyone up in your big strong arms
And put whoopee cushions on our chairs
Listen to us laugh

Smile Together
