We Have Balls

At the beginning of time
Their was life on this Earth
It came like a fire ball
As we ascended upon Earth
For the Earth was round
It shaped like a Ball
The Sun was a Ball
The brightest of them all
               -
And to have a Ball on Earth
Is God's will
And threw the sphere
Manner of secret's doth
Life's secret's reveal
              -
One day every year
We alway's seem to
Drop the Ball on Time Square
We are having a Ball
That seem's quiet fair
               -
We are having a Ball
As the Supper Bowl come's near
We kick off the Foot-Ball
As the crowd suddenly cheer
As the referee makes's the call
The fan's drink their beer
                -
Everybody love's the Crystal Ball
We watch as it fall's
A Farris Wheel is a Minnie Whell
And that's not all
                 -
Golf Balls' is Balls
Be it, as it may
Tennis Balls' were Tennis Balls'
And to this game
The crowds must play
               -
We also have semi-circles
The making of a Ball
If you put them together with glue
Then you can have a Ball too.....
                -
And, yes people are smart
They are always' on the Ball
And their are some
Who are as sharp as a "Bowling Ball"
                 -
Now, we can go round and round
Bout just what is a Ball all day
But, the Earth will revolve
Their is just 24 hours'
In just one day,
So watch the Clock
