The Grass May Look Greener

They say you can n’er be too rich, or too tall Or too thin, or too pretty of form and face But I’m here to say… don’t let envy befall Slow down and don’t let yourself run that race! Just look to a person who seems on the top Personality and charm... life with a flair Now, look deep enough and you’ll come to a stop You’ll find something lacking and hiding there. They have no loyal friends, and you have a lot Tho they may be wealthy, you have what you need They are bogged down with worry, but you are not Your life filled with contentment, theirs with greed. If the grass seems greener on the other side… Careful, the cows may have left something to hide!
