The British love a special dish
Which satisfies their hunger wish
The Times reports
Government sports
Bojo's chips went down with the fish...

Hope
Hope is not just a tranquilizer, 
It's a placebo
To keep you alive
Till the doctor comes!
Never you lose hope, never!

Hope is not just an opium,
When the chips are down, 
Hope is that part of you
That keeps you alive
It keeps you looking at the brighter side!

Problems are strong, fears are stronger,
But the smallest hope, could conquer them all....

Vows
When ones take a vow on the altar,
They are not just making a promise,
They are making a bond.
They are making a shield if one gets in trouble.
They are a beacon if one is in danger.
They are a shoulder to lean on if one cries.
They will not quit on each other, even when the chips are down.
They praise one’s strengths and respect their weaknesses.
They talk about problems.
In other words, they are one....

When the chips are down 
Men  are separated from boys
Quitters  fall by the way side
While perennial winners 
Seize the day and be counted 
For that is the essence of life

Life is  a live show 
It is for a short season 
It is time to show the stuff 
One is made of
And bow out as the ovation 
Reaches its crescendo 

Life is for the living 
Take it one day at a time
Everyday as if it were the last
Cause the ultimate leveler 
Strikes when you least expect it...

Granda
When the storm clouds gather 
and the thunder rolls, 
when the chips are down and the blood runs cold, 
I hear the click of the walking stick 
and I know I'm not alone. 

Your life with us was long
and now you live
elsewhere but still your calm and strength you give
To us who miss you right down here
for I know I'm not alone.

So as the sea swells high
and the birds take flight,
and the still is gone from the starry night,
I hope that now you can see,
how much you mean to me....
