Why do cats smile
When dragons breathe fire
Why do frogs sigh
When camels wish to retire
Why do the antelope
Go swingling off the anchor-rope
Why do bares bore
Oh why whatever for
No one will ever know
And neither will I
So think happy thoughts
Till bad ones go by
Why do birds sing
When worms can't hear a thing
Why do snakes dance
When snails get fried in France
Why do the red foxes
Go pulling off the badgers' socks
Why do sheep dive
Straight into the beehive
No one will ever know
The blackbird in the pie
So think happy thoughts
Till bad ones go by
So think happy thoughts
Till bad ones go by
Happy Thoughts
