Live Life

A tear spilt in sorrow weights more than one spilt in cheer.
It's easy to make god laugh just  tell him your plans for next year.
Always leave people  smiling and never leave them in tears 
As you never know when death will appear.
Man or woman 
black or white
young or old.
Time as no meaning when you are going to die
eternity's just a glint in deaths eye.
There's no pockets in shrouds and nothing to buy.
Pauper or Prince,  we all pass by.
Man or woman 
black or white
young or old.
Life is for living you only get the one go. 
It's for drinking bottles of vintage Bordeaux.
Making angels in the snow.
Visiting Santa in his grotto at the ripe old age of 42.
Man or woman 
black or white
young or old.

LIVE LIFE .
