INSANE OR SANE?<\/p>\n

Now according to crazy folks,
\nThe rest of the world is insane,
\nCrazies are happy in insanity,
\nWhile the world is only in pain.<\/p>\n

So we really have to wonder,
\nWho are the smart ones here,
\nThe guy with a college degree,
\nOr he who grins from ear to ear.<\/p>\n

What is the whole world worth,
\nIf it only makes everyone sad,
\nMaybe the crazy makes sense,
\nEven though they say he’s mad.<\/p>\n

Well, it is quite a dilemma I see,
\nI am not sure which is the best,
\nDo you think I’ve lost my brains,
\nAnd now require a sanity test?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
