First Day of the Rest of Your Life
Do as much as you can before your number is finally drawn.
Get up having courage when you face each dawn.
Make those great accomplishments a reality.
Display them in a store window for the world to see.
Anything good can happen if you make an effort to believe.
This really is not any world where we should get up and leave.
Success can be thick enough to cut with a knife.
Remember, this is the first day of the rest of your life.
