Hey mister. I will give you ten dollars
Just because I want to see a mere smile
I need relief from this world so vile
These days, people never seem to bother
None want to look on the bright side of life
Thus, it’s hard to see a grin for the frowns
Any mention of joy is trampled down
In favour of moaning on pain and strife
For in this world, the pessimists are king
You think it will kill them to something nice
Complaints aren’t for the weak or a vice
Guess it’s easier to say horrid things
So far I haven’t seen a smile today
So how much more do you want me to pay?
