could be a nice one for the Eurovision songfestival

I would mix it a bit more rough, people are used to a big sound, in that area also

An example is the solo piano at the end, why not give a shot in volume and let it make the party?
The cynical (well) caracter of your words can only benefit from the 'happy' instrumental parts, and the basic beat keeps it all together.
In general I would add more hi's, the sound could be more sprankling (hihats, cymbals, maybe a nice delay on the hihats).

Hm, or is it intended to be an early-Beatles composition, like the nice effects seems to hint

(like in I'm the walrus and stuff).
Anyway, then certainly you can push the mix a lot, they were studio freaks!

AlsoI would give those special effects on the voice more amount in the mix

, it will express the arrangement even better
