Some people see things as they are and ask "Why?"; I dream of things that never were and ask "Why not?"

When the song was released, it was all part of the culture of that era. I still love it whatever it's about. wink

Anything that can raise a smile helps to lift your mood.

But... 

The clown's mask we wear on a daily basis sometimes carries over to the written word  Trying to be amusing does not always reflect one's own feelings at that particular time.

However  reading other people's comments does help to take your mind off your circumstances and your general health problems 

Thank you @Mi-Amigo for the nomination 😊
