The Lemonade Stand
Life handed me lemons
And I tried to make lemonade
But there wasn't enough sugar
For the sour taste to fade
Like a naïve child
I created my own brand
And set up on a corner
With my little lemonade stand
But my drinks were too sour
And people quickly stopped buying
So I packed up my stand
And completely stopped trying
Life handed me lemons
And lemons aren't sweet
My little lemonade stand
Just couldn't compete
