The Happiest People in the World
The Happiest People in the World

I have it on good authority
that the Danes in the vast majority
have made it their single priority
to always expect the worst.

The result of this gen’ral mentality
in every eventual finality
they experience a joyful neutrality
never knowing a hunger or thirst.
