This Life

Meet a girl. In a whirl. She’s a keeper
Something old. Something new. Something blue
Backward glance. Bad romance. Take a chance
Wedding bells. Something smells. Go to hell
Well we all sing the song
Make it up as we go along
Violate. Copulate. Procreate
Incubate. Replicate. Generate
Little toes. Little eyes. Little cries
Curious. Wonderous. Glorious
Well we tumble and turn
We all live and we learn
Do our best to survive
Only one chance at this life
Busy times. Kiddy rhymes. Nursery crimes
Sunny days. Catching rays. Happy face
See them all. Growing tall. Strong and stable
Passing years. As your fears. Disappear
Well we tumble and turn
We all live and we learn
Do our best to survive
Only one chance at this life
Treachery. Misery. Infidelity
In denial. For a while. But it’s futile
Terminate. Separate. Relocate
New address. What a mess. Unhappiness
Well we all sing the song
Make it up as we go along
Find a way. Through the maze. Back to freedom
Meet a girl. In a whirl. Something deeper
Something old. Something new. Something blue
Second round. Settle down. Find your happy now
Well we all sing the song
Make it up as we go along
Well we tumble and turn
We all live and we learn
Do our best to survive
Only one chance at this life
