[LA]  When you feel the world is caving in, grin.

When you really take it on the chin, grin.

When you think you need an aspirin, grin.

That’s the way to win:  grin.

 

When you feel your spirits start to fall, grin.

Every time you’re up against a wall, grin.

When life treats you like a soccer ball, grin.

Watch the fun begin.  Grin.

 

Grin when your mouth is getting poutish.

Grin when you’re feeling down-and-outish.

Grin when your heart is full of doubtish.

Grin.  It’s in.

 

When the world begins to get you down, grin.

When your rainbow turns to shades of brown, grin.

When you feel your face begin to frown, grin.

Grin, grin, grin.

Through thick and thin, grin, grin.

You lose or win, grin, grin.

 

Grin.
