Lust for life

Cross that bridge Before you burn it Keep the bush fire from the ridge Hope the wind will turn it Not every cloud has a silver lining, some clouds have hails And the grass may not be greener on the other side, You may be standing where the soil fails Good luck killing those two birds with the one stone You are not that accurate Just try for one alone Comparison kills all joy Desire blinds the eyes Illusions shine from afar I can hear a butterfly’s sighs My religion is kindness in a jar My smile is my umbrella I see myself as a happy fella I keep my head cool And my feet warm And no longer act the fool (Bridge-guitar) Love my jazz guitar The most worthwhile thing we have in this life Is enthusiasm Leave the cruelty of sarcasm far behind With chaos and strife The most worthwhile thing we have in this life Is enthusiasm A lust for life, yes it is The most worthwhile thing we have in this life Is enthusiasm A lust for life, a simple lust for life Come on join me In this lust I say In this crazy lust for life
