Tick
Tock
WTF?
Life is just a ticking clock.
I went racing
To find gold
And on the way
I damn got old!
I chanced my luck
I made a buck
Along the way
I damn got f*cked!
I made a dime
I paid my time
But this is not
A nursery rhyme.
The dues
I paid
The bucks
I made
Have not an easy
Rich way paved.
It may still all
Just turn out fine
And hallelujah
Still be mine.
But just in case
It turns out wrong
I state my case
And pray it's strong.
I did it all
Just for my girl
I did it all
'cos she's my world.
I risked it all
I took a chance
Stripped to nothing
Did the dance.
It's all for her
Without a doubt
I might lose all
Or might
Luck out.
But in the end
Win or lose
The choice I chose
Was mine
To choose.
