lyrics

Let us all chortle now,
let us laugh, let’s all giggle to day
All the fools won’t notice
we will be smirking again

Or is it time for convulsions?
Laughing is all that we do
Doctors will say it is healthy
so, let’s chortle, yes chortle along

Say, what is wrong with some mockery?
if it’s executed
properly, thoroughly
I could tell a dirty joke about the sailor and the nun
smutty jokes are always favoured if you wanna have some fun

Am I near the knuckle now?
Serious, humorless?
I go for ear-to-ear, vibrancy, laughter, so:

Let us all chortle now,
Let us laugh, let’s all giggle to-day
All the fools won’t notice
we will be joking again

Or is it time for sarcasm?
oh, what some irony can do... so,
sneering and jeering, barbing
don’t be such a chicken, we are on a mission here:

Laughing out loud is a Human Right
Mind that you’re not laughing at me,
so yes, it’s time to chortle all day
