Does this strike a cord that life is short on adventure
Does your old age tend to get in the way
Well here's some free advice sister or mister
Take all you care to use then give the rest away

Do all you can in life to make you happy
Demand that a smile stay on your face
Try and learn a thing or two from the things that you go through
And underneath your suit wear a hero's cape

Always answer back with a please and thank you
It's sure to make yours and others day
Say grace before every meal with a heart that's still
And if the food taste bad don't make a face

Don't try and buy your happiness with money
It's too often easy come and easy go
There's more to this life if you'll just take the time
And you may find it's best to let things go

So if any of this gets in your business
And knocks on both your noggin and your heart
I can tell you what to do before this day is through
There's no time like this time for you to start
