Noisy Toys and Building Bricks

noisy toys and building bricks girls and boys in football kits playground fights homework books summer nights disprooving looks growing pains and butterflies test and gains that qualify leaving school hunting work breaking rules going berserk frequenting pubs getting drunk discover love and have a bunk find a spouse and settle down buy a house outside of town have some kids start to fight hit the skids stay out all night get divorced loose your job feel remorse become a snob find yourself loose the weight discover wealth start to date love again this time for real hide the pain but start to feel watch your kids have there own building bricks and a noisy zone grow too old and then retire feel the cold and loose the fire close your eyes then drift away as life dies the memories play of all the joys the one that sticks is noisy toys and building bricks
