The Same Leaky Old Boat
Today is the first day of the rest of your life
Make the most of it
Everyone has a specific number of days here on earth
But no one knows what that number is
Best thing is to ignore it and live life
As if you are going to live forever
Your final day will arrive a lot quicker
Than you thought when you were a young'un
But if you can look back on a full happy life
Then when your time is up, you'll be ready
If that can ever be at all possible!
Think of the good stuff, don't dwell on the negatives
Everyone has them no matter who they are
So be happy, think positive
We're all sailing down life's stream
In the same leaky old boat... ENJOY!
