she wants to cheer just seeing the package

It is our duty as democrats to show
when things are working. Our trust in Fidel!

Daddy is with the children. Oh he laughs!
Mummy is on the computer. What a joy!

It is a Smiley Culture we are making.
Let’s have a cup of tea with our police.
It is a Smiley Culture we are given.
Those who don’t keep grinning are dangerous.
