Life's a Grabber

Life's a grabber, ain't it? With all of its up and downs Never know what's in store Best to be a clown! Whatever life hurls at you Just laugh and giggle away Time to worry tomorrow Tomorrow's another day! This is my own philosophy Won't work for everyone Give it a whirl, let it go Kick it and have some fun! Life will be long and happy Sunshine every day Don't worry bout the forecast Just smile and chuckle away! Life's a grabber, ain't it? Don't waste it on some frowns Click your heels, skip along Turn nasty upside down!
