Unique Horn

Carpe Diem, seize the day Live by the rules of the game you play The world is your oyster, enjoy the ride When the going gets tough, look on the bright side Silence is golden, take that to the bank Put that in your pipe while smoke screens draw blank Though money makes the world go round Speak louder through actions than through sound Empty vessels make the most noise Best medicine, laughter, daily poise Fool me once means shame on you Shame on me, that’s fooled times two Follow your heart, reach for the stars Dreams come true, firefly jars A bird in hand is worth two in a bush When push comes to shove, shove comes to push A stitch in time always saves nine As luck still favors prepared minds Fortune favors the brave at heart Every ending once had a start Live your life without regret ‘Tis better to forgive and to forget We’re proned to get as hard as we give Throw stones in the glass houses we live Don’t count your chickens before they hatch Two birds with one stone, that’s quite a catch A rolling stone gathers no moss Too many cooks spoil the broth Just try again if you don’t succeed And don’t believe everything you read Make every experience educational To think twice before speaking is critical Let sleeping dogs lie I always say Cause every dog will have his day To be taught new tricks no matter the age Nothing ventured, nothing gained Two heads they say is better than one Violence isn’t always the key my son Beggars can’t choose, that much we know More haste less speed, no time to grow When seams come undone, it’s cause for concern We are what we are, we live what we learn
