Introduction

During a long distance phone call to a friend in Brazil, the subject of men, relationships and love arose. My friend said (in her thick accent) "Don't worry darling...all you need is 'appiness" I think this is what she meant…

'appiness
(note: for best effect, recite in a Portugese accent!)

I found the secret to life...it's 'appiness
'appiness is everyone's due
I wish I could give you all 'appiness
Then we'd all have 'appiness...me and you

'appiness is such a great thing
I'd love to spread some around
If the women all had 'appiness
You'd find them all up...never down

Men need 'appiness more than women
We can find other means to bring joy
But most men would know they've had 'appiness
Since they were a little boy

I remember I had 'appiness once
'Appiness became my good friend
I think 'appiness can serve you
Right through till the bittersweet end

I'd love to give everyone 'appiness
Though some would not know what to do
Would you make the most of 'appiness
If 'appiness came now to you?

'Appiness is not hard to find
Though sometimes 'appiness is hard
For some people just can't feel 'appiness
So when 'appiness comes, they discard.

With my lover I share such 'appiness
He's a truly amazing guy
I wish I could show you such 'appiness
But my lover just will not comply

'Appiness comes in all shapes and sizes
It's treasured the whole world around
If you are not blessed with 'appiness
Go get 'appiness and share it around

So next time that you long for 'appiness
Just remember what you have to do
Just call up a friend, ask him over
To share 'appiness with you
