| Life is a series of impossible dreams, yeah
|
| Full of disappointment and it ain’t what it seems
|
| Everybody’s pulling you a different way
|
| You want to close your eyes and make it all go away
|
| But what you gonna do when the rent comes do
|
| And the dollars in your wallet are numbered few
|
| Or your neighbor comes knocking on your front door
|
| He wants the mower that you borrowed
|
| The night before your garage burned down
|
| Your boss is screaming
|
| 'Cause he walked in your office and
|
| He found you on top of your desk asleep
|
| But what you gonna do that’s life!
|
| Life! |
| Too much to do and too much strife
|
| Life! |
| Your girlfriend left ya and it cuts life a knife
|
| Life! |
| Seventy years and a nagging wife
|
| Life! |
| You look in the mirror and it’s Barney Fife
|
| (What do you mean by that? First Time)
|
| You wrecked your buddy’s car and
|
| You cracked your head!
|
| It wouldn’t have happened if you’d looked ahead and braked
|
| But your mind was racing
|
| 'Cause you was thinkin
|
| 'Bout chasing that girl who turned you down
|
| Everybody’s talking 'bout it
|
| All over town
|
| But then things just get worse
|
| You look in the mirror and you think it’s a curse
|
| Your hair is falling out on your pillow and all through the house
|
| But what you gonna do that’s life!
|
| Life is a dirty trick
|
| If you listen to the devil’s lies
|
| But life is another man’s treasure
|
| If he’s given it up to Christ
|
| Now wait a minute buddy
|
| My story ain’t done
|
| God said it all when He gave the world His only Son
|
| To die on the cross
|
| Just when you think that all is lost
|
| There’s hope for all mankind
|
| Just give it to Him
|
| And you can’t find life more abundantly
|
| And that’s the only reason for life! |
