This was an exercise to write a song from a list of synonyms. The word was happiness and the list had 74 suggestions. I used 47. I tell the story.
Lyrics:
Synonyms is such a big word
It gives you options some words to choose
So pay attention and listen close to me
Happiness seems so hard to find
Maybe your not looking in the right place
Here's a list of answers to start your trip.
Are you ready…..
Bliss, contentment, delight and joy.
Elation, enjoyment, euphoria and glee
Exhilaration, jubilation and cheer
Laughter, optimism and peace of mind
Pleasure, prosperity plus well being
Cheerfulness, delirium and mirth
Blessedness, beatitude and felicity
Ecstasy, enchantment, exuberance
Gaiety, good spirits and lightheartedness
There you go with some selections to make
You better do it for your own sake
If you missed them here's just a few more.
Are you ready…
Hilarity, hopefulness and merriment
Gladness, vitality, plus joviality
Paradise, playfulness, cheeriness
Rejoicing, good humor, vivacity
Eudemonia, ( U-da-monia) amusement and fun
Good liquor, now we're in seventh heaven!
Now don't you tell me you can't decide
If that's the case, you better run and hide
Cause happiness will chase you word by word.
My first choice is Eudaemonia
Let's end singing Eudemonia
Eudemonia, Eudemonia
