Change

Sally sang in sunshine
sally sang in rain
sally sang in sunshine 
to make a better day

Rupert rang the roosters neck
Rupert ran around the deck
Rupert rose above the pain
and learned to play a better way

David drank at dinner
David drank at lunch 
David rose up drunk one day
and chose to find a better way 

life is like a river
always full of change 
each day that you wake up my love
there is a chance to play

Sally sang in sunshine  
Sally sang in rain
Sally sang in sunshine
to make a better day

Susie studied school books
Susie studied maths 
Susie studied science
and learned that study pays

Mark made music melody's
Mark made music songs
Mark made music melody's
and we all sang along
