Why Take Yourself So Seriously

Why take yourself so seriously of humor you seem broke
I've yet to hear you laugh aloud at the punchline of a joke
And if you forced yourself to smile i fear your face might crack
You are what's known to many as a regular sad sack
With a nice wife and schoolgoing daughter and son in a well paying work career
You ought to be a happy man and full of bubbling cheer
But you act as if you are penniless, sleeping in a draughty shed
Without hope for the future and wishing you were dead
Remember you can laugh a bit and to your God still pray
But living life is serious business at least you see it that way
I can't say I've yet seen you with a big smile on your face
Though laughter in so many lives does seem to have a place
You do take life too seriously that does seem sad to say
For life can be quite boring without a laugh a day.
