The Might Have Been and the Never Was
The Might Have Been and the Never Was,
The Futures That Died, The Forgotten Cause,
The Unmet Dreams from Yesterdays,
All meet for lunch on odd Tuesdays,
Where they complain about the sorry state
Of Things As They Are, (who’s always late),
And talk about their aches and their pains,
And stumble about on crutches and canes,
While The Resolutions from last New Year’s Eve
Argue over how much tip to leave.
