You'd Never Guess By the wretched looks of us That this is happiness. Be it that this life brought on more stress With less and less time to discuss You'd Never Guess... Back then, when she said 'yes' And 'She' and 'I' became 'Us' I thought: 'This is happiness! ' Nowadays our house is such a mess Like, …The kids came and we can't adjust! You'd Never Guess… As you rise above the loudness And try to contain all their fuss You think: 'This is happiness? ' Seen from outside, it's sheer madness. This family's a three-ring circus! You'd Never Guess... That this is happiness.
