Life is not a rehearsal I heard him say
As we were talking together on that day
Many things that happen you won’t control
Remember in the end that’s not in your role
As he puffed away and I contemplated it all
He said sometimes you’ll have to take the fall
As a life philosophy I think it did have merit
And I have thought of giving him some credit
After all to make your way you have to find a fit
To live your life and make a success of it
But what of those things you need to practice?
Surely you should to do this without any malice
So live your life, make your mistakes to learn from them
Happiness is what it’s about to take you to the end!
