'Tis about a man born into a poor family
When he grew up
He sought to have the best things in life
So he could derive Maximum Satisfaction
He therefore learnt a trade
He worked very hard after his apprenticeship
He got money and became rich
He bought landed property
He built houses
He bought cars
Still, he didn't get Maximum Satisfaction
He got married
He raised a family
They went on trips
He took more vacations
Went om more trips
He retired early
He gave to the poor
He got richer
He acquired more assets
Still, he didn't get Maximum Satisfaction
He grew old
Became bedridden
Sought comfort from his relatives
On his death bed
One of his sons finally told him the way
He sought it out and finally
He did get Maximum Satisfaction
He didn't get it from Riches
He didn't get it from Wealth
He did get it from a King
The owner and creator of the Universe
