It Takes Balls To Live

Life is a ball, bouncing – retrieving You never know how far it goes How it bounces Like your hopes and aspiration So you learn, prepare and like a ball roll around Just when you want to pick it up Your dog beats you to it But if you trained your dog he will run, return it and dutifully wiggle his tail Of course like in life You have to learn how to hit the ball skillfully Present striking and Bases loaded – homerun Your team wins But that’s dreaming Luck maybe – not so easy Go practice, live a little Hone your skills, challenge, Roll that bouncing ball – strike OK But then again in rough weather Watch out for an ice shower of hail If you ever played dodge ball Well you do it every day in life Try not to get hit, persevere Yes it takes balls to stand up Fight for your principles, go hit your home run! Win a little but keep playing. What other choice do you have?
