Make Your Life Watchable
We live our life not thinking at all
of how one day you'll see it in a flash
right before your eyes all at once
now today you can sort it but be not rash
Think back when you came on earth
with one certainty you'll leave one day
no matter what years you have in between
so make an impression while you stay
You really want to show you're on song
singing a melody that fits your tune
using all your repertoire in your display
make sure you are truly in prime
Years toll by and grey hairs come
look back on all that's gone before
make sure you've kept your integrity
be true to yourself within your inner core
So strive on in rest of your life
be sure you're worth the watch
remember who knows who's looking
so live to show no blotch
(Quote:
"One day your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure it's worth watching."
