It’s in the bag A matter of fact Stone cold sober He realized he was in over his head A word to the wise You better fly straight And never blind Before you’re cut down to size Time is money Money makes the world go round Life is short Love is blind Misery loves company All is fair in love and war Except when you’re shooting blanks When everything is picture perfect You just give thanks Which is no cliche Try to rank at the pinnacle With a touch of class It’s now or never Just a matter of time Right out of the movies Yet truth is stranger than fiction For the camera never lies But watch for those who’ll drop a dime Don’t need reason or rhyme Unless the train has left the station And you’re not the sharpest tool in the shed Instead of a fish in water Then it’s a pirate’s life for me You can’t make this stuff up Or you’re barking up the wrong tree
