Life is Funny

"Life is Funny"

It’s chapstick and cherry lip gloss
Bosses in the office
And a never ending shopping list
It’s roses and thorns,
Warm embraces
And tough bull horns,
It’s night and day
No time to play,
Lay around lazy
Or gaze in the night
It’s sandwiches or salad
ATM cards that say invalid
It’s music and chords,
Losses and awards,
Rewards for being right,
Slaps for being wrong,
It’s a bedtime song,
With your ma or your pa
It’s bananas and peanut butter
Clutter ‘till you can’t see the floor
Never a bore,
Life’s the best movie you’ll ever see
You play your self
It’s the well or top shelf

Life is a funny funny thing,
Never knowing what it’ll bring
Up in the morning
For some fresh sun,
Maybe start it off with a run,
But life is funny and you
Never know what will come
Although there are some
Who try to predict
But they’re only kicked
‘cos life is a funny funny thing
never knowing what it’ll bring

It’s yellow and black
Stacked or flat
And on top of all that
It’s smiles and frowns
Pinks and browns
It’s Sisters who steal
and brothers who smell
who’s to tell
what they’ve got in their hand
it’s hair full of twigs
and shoes full of sand
it’s holidays and road trips
sips of chocolate milk
sweaty cotton or smooth white silk
it’s numbers and letters
feathers in your hair
playing fair and cheating hard
it’s tears and smiles
laughter and trials
love and like
it’s all things alike
black eyes and bruises
retirement and cruises

Life is a funny funny thing
Making you cry, laugh and sing
Never knowing what the wind will bring,
Or how the next bee will sting,
Life is funny or surprisingly quaint
It wont end if you stumble and say aint
Those who live in expectation
End up only in frustration
Temptation is tested
And with all the power vested
We make it out alive
tall or short, Strong or weak,
we help each other to surive
life is a funny funny thing
never knowing what tomorrow will bring

Life is diets and divorce
Morphine for a dying racehorse
It’s Power Bars and skiing,
Contacts and seeing,
It’s rain and sun,
Beaches and highways,
Tall black buildings,
Robins with killed wings,
It’s milk and money
Green tea with honey
Cut off shorts and cute capris
It’s lice or dog fleas,

Life is funny and humours itself
It’s funny funny how it goes along
Right and wrong
From Kiev to Hong Kong,
Life never says yes or no,
Or gives you black and white
It’s grey and maybe’s
To figure out yourself
It’s crying babies
And cleaning dentures
Life is full of adventures
It’s a funny funny thing
And worth everything
Every minute, second and day
Through pain, tears, and joy
It’s all okay,
It’s supposed to be this way
Life is a funny funny thing
Fun to see what winter, fall
Summer and spring
May bring

Life is funny.
It's a funny funny thing.
