           outwits himself even when


           playing solitaire !...

The Queen bade us not to despair
When a knight leapt into the air
Sly as a crook
He took our Rook
Check-mating our King fair and square!...

Ty Coon became a millionaire
With lots of friends & ladies fair
But filled with lust
He soon went bust
For she could blow it fair and square...

McDonald's and Burger King fare
Fuel obesity fair and square
Fast food tastes so good
We eat all we could
Truth be told, we really don't care!...

One common ground we all share,
That life maps for us - fair and square;
We do start scattered all around,
Ending up in common ground.
From down below we aren't much worth -
While still above, let's save the earth.

Is memory a way of compensation
To the life we lead
Is experience a way of compensation
To the time we lost
Is evaluation a way of compensation
To the effort we put in
Is maturity a way of compensation
To the aging process every man has to face
Oh, compensation there is
Oh, God says
Is that fair and square
As every has it share...

R-ight choice or decision
I-s made fair and square; 
T-he procedure is followed, 
A-s you act being chair.

F-air and square, you do it, 
R-emain obedient to the law; 
A-ugust twenty-fifth day, 
N-ever fear the devil's claw.
C-all the shots with guts, 
I-nstead of starting to err; 
A-llow your mind and heart to judge fair and square....

It's your birthday fair and square,
It seems like no one else will care.
In your dreams your life's a treat,
But real life's made of smelly feet.
You'd like to have a little rest,
But bosses think that work is best.
You work all day, you work all night,
You have to live by candle light.
And when finally your work is done,
We think that you should have some fun....

Let go, buddy, no need to sulk and cry,
I won this girl’s heart, fair and square;
No, I won’t say ‘Sorry for your loss’,
After the pains you put her through.

Nothing you’ll do will bring her back to you,
Go, go, go, buddy, find someone new;
Kathy belongs to me now and she’s mine
And you’re not taking what belongs to me.

To this victor goes love’s delightful spoils
And I guess I’m just the better man.
You hear what I am saying?...

A-lthough you're in dire straits, 
N-ever fear the stumbling block; 
G-et up off your knees, 
E-agerly find the
L-uck.

F-ight fair and square, 
A-ugust twenty-sixth Saturday; 
B-rave the serious trouble, 
R-ugged wind will fade away.
I-n dire straits, pray to God, 
C-ry for help and rescue; 
A-sk the Lord to bring
N-othing but His love so true.
T-ake shelter in God's arms, evading the hell's gates; 
E-arnestly learn to pray when you're in dire straits....

I jogged, one foot after the other,
Lungs wide open to welcome,
Breathings of the warm evening air,
Eyes stung at the touch of
Cruel sweat, saturated and salty.

I jogged, a flat branch overhead,
My left arm reached out to touch
The tree and its clippings,
Dwindling down the serpent's throat,
Though my fingers were amiss.

I jogged, against the moving air,
Soles hitting the ground aloud,
Bullets firing as if the sound,
Outpacing the farthest person,
All was fair and square....
