A funny little thing called life

One day I was walking down the street
Puffing hair out of my eyes
In the boiling heat
When I fell flat on my face and grazed my legs and my knees

Life is a game
Just roll the dice
It can give you luck
Or a headache
How nice

Bad things
Happen to good people
And good things happen to the bad
I’m afraid that is life
It’s very very sad

Life is unfair
A game of lottery
There is no meaning to it
No secret
That’s the key

Take what you’re given
Work for what you’re not
Stop complaining when it’s raining
And scowling when it’s hot

Life is sometimes awful
You want to curl up and die
But also so wonderful
You want to fly through the sky

A hug
A kiss
A smile
A wish that came true
Millions of feelings
That make you, you!

Life is only temporary
So don’t waste it worrying and sad
Live it to the full, laugh and smile
Forget the gloom that you’ve had
Tomorrow might never come
So don’t wish away today
And don’t worry about the past
It’s gone, an old day!

Life is a gift
The lucky ones make it through
They wade through the dark
Into the light
And live to ninety two

You may feel
Like it’s all going wrong
But look at someone who’s dying
As they struggle along

They’d love to be you
Happy and healthy
So it doesn’t matter
If you’re rich and wealthy

The rich can buy items
Watches, jewels and rings
But they too can die
They’re not immortal with their bling

So it does not care
If you’re old, small or young
Death will consume us all
One by one

We can’t stop it at all
It’ll catch us when we fall
It’ll tear us apart
And rip out our hearts

But don’t think about death
Right now you’ve got life
So live it I tell you
Enjoy it I tell you
Don’t wait for death to come

In it’s hood with its knife
